Kow Tow Songtext
von Mick Jagger

And I just don′t do things by halves
So come now, please don't make me laugh
The wicked lay stones in my path
And friends who are snakes in the grass
I feel the warmth of you in summer days gone by
The waves they rocked the boat
You smiled at me and closed your eyes
I won′t bow down
I won't kow tow
Won't beat Saint too
Won′t be lied to
I won′t turn tail
Won't be blackmailed by you
And I can see through you like glass
So come now, please don′t make me laugh
I hear the country church bells ring for you
I see the church choir rise and sing for you
But I'll be leaving soon
I′m off at high noon
I've got a heavy heart


With tension long past, ′cause
I won't bow down
I won't kow tow
Won′t beat Saint too
Won′t be lied to
I won't turn tail
Won′t be blackmailed
But if you think of me
Think something sweet of me
So listen, I look around in rage
There's nothing left, there′s nothing saved
Some memories, a photograph
The future looms, so damn the past
I don't want you
I don′t need you
I won't bow down
I won't kow tow
I won′t turn tail
Won′t be blackmailed
Won't beat Saint too
