The Rolling Stones
Sittin' on a Fence
Flowers (1967)
Written By: Jagger/Richards
[Capo 1]
[VERSE 1]
Since I was young I've been very hard to please
And I don't know wrong from right
But there is one thing I could never understand
Some of the sick things that a girl does to a man, so
[CHORUS]
I'm just sittin' on a fence
You can say I got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So I'm sittin' on a fence
[VERSE 2]
All of my friends at school grew up and settled down
And they mortgaged up their lives
One thing's not said too much, but I think it's true
They just get married 'cause there's nothing else to do, so
[CHORUS]
I'm just sittin' on a fence
You can say I got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So I'm sittin' on a fence
[CHORUS]
I'm just sittin' on a fence
You can say I got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So I'm sittin' on a fence
[VERSE 3]
The day-can-come when-you-get-old and sick and tired of life
You just never realize
Maybe the choice you made wasn't really right
But you go out and you don't come back at night, so
[CHORUS]
I'm still sittin' on a fence
You can say I got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So I'm sittin' on a fence
