This is Keith's cover of the classic blues-song originally written and recorded by Luke Jordan back in 1927.

It's not the best version of the song I have heard, but it's a moving version. Enjoy.

Keith Richards: guitar and vocals (1994).

The lyrics:

well,yonder comes my baby all dressed in white
see baby gonna stay all night
cocaine all around my brain

yonder comes my baby all dressed in blue
see baby what you gonna do
cocain all around my brain

hey baby come here quick
this old cocaine is making me sick
cocain all around my brain

cocaine's for horses, its not for men
they say it'll kill you but they don't say when
cocain all around my brain

ohh baby would'nt you get here quick
this old cocaine is making me sick
cocain all around my brain

it's all around my brain
