License This Song 

• She's my little rock 'n' roll, oh
  Oh, she's my little rock 'n' roll, buddy
  The heat's raiding, the track's fading
  Joint's rocking, could be anytime at all
  But the bitch keeps bitching, snitcher keeps snitching
  Dropping names and telephone numbers and all
  
  She's my little rock 'n' roll, oh
  Oh, she's my little rock 'n' roll, oh
  
  The scar's healing but the dealer's squealing
  The pool's in but the patio ain't dry
  Well, the sense is sensing that the juice keeps pumping
  And I know why
  
  She's my little rock 'n' roll
  My tits and ass with soul, baby
  She's my little rock 'n' roll
  Oh, she's my little rock 'n' roll, yeah
  You got to shock them, show them
  She's my little rock 'n' roll, yeah
  Shock, shock, shock, oh my, my, my
  
  Well, the sense is sensing that the juice keeps pumping
  And I know why
  Hey
  The bitch keeps bitching, snitcher keeps snitching
  Dropping names and telephone numbers and all
  
  She's my little rock 'n' roll, oh
  My tits and ass with soul baby
  She's my little rock 'n' roll, yeah
  You got to shock them, show them
  She's my little rock 'n' roll, oh
  She got a feeling to know, baby
  She's my little rock 'n' roll, baby
  Ah, the little bitch got soul
  
  She's my little rock 'n' roll, ah, oh
  Shock them, show them
  She's my little rock 'n' roll, yeah
  Oh, she's my little rock 'n' roll
  Ah, tits and ass with soul, honey
  She's my little rock 'n' roll, baby
  Ah, tits and ass with soul
  She's my little rock 'n' roll Writer/s: Keith Richards, Mick Jagger

• John Henry from Reston, VaCan’t get this song out of my head for days!, and I’ve been a Stones fan since ‘68. One of Keith’s best, along with “Before they make me run.” Love the line: “Pools in but the patio ain’t dry.”
• Muggs from Cleveland OhioShe was nasty. Watch the Stones documentary Crossfire Hurricane. They show her on a plane stuffing food in her mouth. IDK, maybe something wasn't right with the shot but I couldn't see anyone f--king her except the riff raff
• Guy from Benson, NcThe video of the song posted here is lousy. Keith has a terrible voice and this proves it. Great song, though.
• Caitlyn from Metuchen, NjKeith has 3 daughters with 2 of them named Theodora and Alexandra. He calls them his Little T and A.
• Carol from Melbourne, AustraliaLove this song and I love him, have done for 51 years
• Danny from Your Town, IaI think Keith should stick to singing this and "Happy".
• Ben from Chelsea, MeKeith was like the biggest $lut rocker ever. Seriouly, just look at songs like this, or Star Star.
• Bill from Erie, PaWhen I saw them perform this, Keith was so drunk he couldn't remember the lyrics, so he just mumbled and occastionally yelled "Baby! Baby!" throughout it.
• Car from Tulsa, OkI like this song, because its exactly what almost every girl wants, a great body and soul too.
• Terry from Richardson, TxBest line: The pool's in but the patio ain't dry!
• Ted from Loveland, CoRecorded in January & February 1979. Released on the album Tattoo You on August 24, 1981
  Lead Vocal: Keith Richards Electric Guitars: Keith Richards, Ron Wood Drums: Charlie Watts Bass: Bill Wyman (?) or Keith Richards (?) Piano: Ian Stewart Backing Vocals: Keith Richards, Ron Wood, Mick Jagger
• Rhett from Melbourne, AustraliaI really like this song - i think its one of keith's best.
