Sleepy City The Rolling Stones
"Sleepy City" by The Rolling Stones, released in 1967, is a #Rock song that explores themes of urban isolation and disillusionment. The lyrics depict a sense of boredom and stagnation in a city setting. Musically, it features a mellow, laid-back vibe with bluesy influences, showcasing the band's versatility. While not a major hit, it reflects the counterculture of the era.
Walkin'thru' the sleepy city
In the dark it looks so pretty
Till I got to the one cafe
That stays open night and day
Just a lookin' at the sleepy city
In the night it looks so pretty
No one sees the city lights
They just care about the warmth inside
No one listens to what people say
I just sit and hear the radio play
Just then this girl walked in my way
And she was as pretty as my sleepy city
Will you walk through the sleepy city
In the night it looks so pretty
Tired of walkin on my own
It looks better when you're not alone
Will you walk through the sleepy city
In the night it looks so pretty
I'm tired of walkin on my own
It looks better when you're not alone
Mm mm mm mm mm mm
La la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
In the dark it looks so pretty
Till I got to the one cafe
That stays open night and day
Just a lookin' at the sleepy city
In the night it looks so pretty
No one sees the city lights
They just care about the warmth inside
No one listens to what people say
I just sit and hear the radio play
Just then this girl walked in my way
And she was as pretty as my sleepy city
Will you walk through the sleepy city
In the night it looks so pretty
Tired of walkin on my own
It looks better when you're not alone
Will you walk through the sleepy city
In the night it looks so pretty
I'm tired of walkin on my own
It looks better when you're not alone
Mm mm mm mm mm mm
La la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
