Karaoké Far Away Eyes The Rolling Stones

I was driving home early Sunday morning through Bakersfield

Listening to gospel music on the colored radio station

And the preacher said

"You know, you always have the Lord by your side"

And I was so pleased to be informed of this

That I ran twenty red lights in his honor

Thank you Jesus

Thank you Lord

I had an arrangement to meet a girl and I was kind of late

And I thought by the time I got there she'd be off

She'd be off with the nearest truck driver she could find

Yeah

Much to my surprise there she was sitting in the corner

A little bleary worse for wear and tear

Was a girl with far away eyes

But I'll tell you

So if you're down on your luck and you can't harmonize

Find a girl with far away eyes

And if you're downright disgusted and life ain't worth a dime

Get a girl with far away eyes

Well

Well the preacher kept right on saying that all I had to do was

Send in ten dollars to the Church of the Sacred

Bleeding Heart of Jesus

Located somewhere in

Los Angeles, California

And next week they'd say my prayer on the radio

And all my dreams would come true

So I did the next week

I got a prayer for the girl

Well, you know what kind of eyes she got but I'll tell you

So if you're down on your luck

I know you all sympathize

Find a girl with far away eyes

And if you're downright disgusted and life ain't worth a dime

Get a girl with far away eyes

So if you're down on your luck

I know you all sympathize

Get a girl with far away eyes
