Gimme Shelter Lyrics

Oh, a storm is threatening
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away
War,
children,
it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War,
children,
it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away

Ooh,
see the fire is sweeping
Our very street today
Burns like a red coal carpet
Mad bull lost its way

War,
children,
it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War,
children,
it's just a shot away
shot away
shot away
Rape, murder!
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Rape, murder!
It's just a shot away
shot away, shot away

Give me shelter
Please, Gimme shelter
Gimme, Gimme shelter
Somebody, somebody,
Give me shelter

Gimme, Gimme shelter
Please, please, please, please
give me shelter
Gimme, Gimme shelter
Somebody, somebody,
give me shelter

Gimme, Gimme shelter
I've got to have it
Got to have some shelter

Gimme, Gimme shelter
Give me, kiss me
Give me shelter

Gimme, Gimme shelter
Why don't sombody give me shelter

Gimme, Gimme shelter
Please, please
Give me shelter

Gimme, Gimme shelter
I've got to have it
Got to have some shelter
