Original The Rolling Stones version
Hm hm yeah (ooh ooh)
Women think I'm crazy but they're always trying to waste me
Make me burn the candle right down
Baby, baby
Don't need no jewels in my crown
'Cause all you women is low down gamblers
Cheating like I don't know how
Baby, I'm no crazy
There's fever in the funk house now
This low down bitching got my poor feet itching
Don't you know the deuce is still wild
Baby, I can't stay
You've got to roll me and call me the tumbling dice
Always in a hurry, I never stop to worry
Don't see the time flashing by
Honey, got no money
I'm all sixes and sevens and nines
Say now, baby, I'm the rank outsider
You can be my partner in crime
Baby, I can't stay
You've got to roll me and call me the tumbling
Oh yeah (roll me and call me the tumbling dice)
Come on baby
Oh my, my, my, I'm the lone crap shooter
Playing the field every night, every night
Baby, I can't stay
You've got to roll me and call me the tumbling dice
Call me the tumbling dice
(Got to roll me)
(Got to roll me)
(Got to roll me), hm hm yeah
(Got to roll me), hm hm
(Got to roll me), hm yeah
(Got to roll me), hm hm (keep on rolling)
(Got to roll me), hm hm (keep on rolling)
(Got to roll me), hm yeah (keep on rolling)
(Got to roll me), baby, call me the tumbling
(Got to roll me), ah yeah
(Got to roll me), roll me baby, sweet little sugar
(Got to roll me), now yeah
(Got to roll me), roll now now now
(Got to roll me), now now
(Got to roll me), roll me down baby, oh
(Got to roll me), come on baby
(Got to roll me), baby, all night
(Got to roll me)...
