Emotional Rescue Lyrics
Is there nothing I can say
Nothing I can do
To change your mind
I'm so in love with you
You're too deep in
You can't get out
You're just a poor girl in a rich man's house
Yeah, baby, I'm crying over you
Don't you know promises were never made to keep?
Just like the night, dissolve in sleep
I'll be your savior, steadfast and true
I'll come to your emotional rescue
I'll come to your emotional rescue
Yeah, the other night, crying
Crying baby, yeah I'm crying
Yeah I'm like a child baby
I'm like a child baby
Child yeah, I'm like a child, like a child
Like a child
You think you're one of a special breed
You think that you're his pet Pekinese
I'll be your savior, steadfast and true
I'll come to your emotional rescue
I'll come to your emotional rescue
I was dreaming last night
Last night I was dreaming
How you'd be mine, but I was crying
Like a child, yeah, I was crying
Crying like a child
You will be mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, all mine
You could be mine, could be mine
Be mine, all mine
I come to you, so silent in the night
So stealthy, so animal quiet
I'll be your savior, steadfast and true
I'll come to your emotional rescue
I'll come to your emotional rescue
Yeah, you should be mine, mine, whew
Yes, you could be mine
Tonight and every night
I will be your knight in shining armour
Coming to your emotional rescue
You will be mine, you will be mine, all mine
You will be mine, you will be mine, all mine
I will be your knight in shining armour
Riding across the desert with a fine Arab charger
Nothing I can do
To change your mind
I'm so in love with you
You're too deep in
You can't get out
You're just a poor girl in a rich man's house
Yeah, baby, I'm crying over you
Just like the night, dissolve in sleep
I'll be your savior, steadfast and true
I'll come to your emotional rescue
I'll come to your emotional rescue
Crying baby, yeah I'm crying
Yeah I'm like a child baby
I'm like a child baby
Child yeah, I'm like a child, like a child
Like a child
You think that you're his pet Pekinese
I'll be your savior, steadfast and true
I'll come to your emotional rescue
I'll come to your emotional rescue
Last night I was dreaming
How you'd be mine, but I was crying
Like a child, yeah, I was crying
Crying like a child
You will be mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, all mine
You could be mine, could be mine
Be mine, all mine
So stealthy, so animal quiet
I'll be your savior, steadfast and true
I'll come to your emotional rescue
I'll come to your emotional rescue
Yes, you could be mine
Tonight and every night
I will be your knight in shining armour
Coming to your emotional rescue
You will be mine, you will be mine, all mine
You will be mine, you will be mine, all mine
I will be your knight in shining armour
Riding across the desert with a fine Arab charger

good god! does no one have ANYTHING to say about when he actually 'talks' towards the end of the song... oh my. am i the only one that gets pleasure out of that? hahaha i love itttt

Ha ha ha ha Zekey Baby, watch it! I do agree, its hot. "You will be mine" Who wouldnt want Jagger to come to your aid and pursue with you??? I love it, So sexy, confident. What a bunch of lads.
This is like my favorite of the Stones. :)
Great Song! got kind of a disco / BeeGees vibe going on.
Yes mick really gets into it at the end, rare to hear stuff like that nowadays.
I just like the shift in his voice from the start to the finish. Very few can pull that off.
He pointed out that he "learned it from Don Covay's record "Mercy Mercy".It was reggae inspired voice".

Yeah, this is the Stones in their disco phase. What's it about? He wants to steal the woman from a man - she needs to be "emotionally rescued." He wants to prove to her that he is emotionally good enough for her. Contrasting bravado lyrics with falsetto singing and a disco beat.
Emotional Rescue delivers not a bad sound on this recording, quality delivery of high calibur lyrics and sensitive ears. It maintains ur sanity, and you can dance to it, or schwing!
One of their best songs!
cleverly about white knight syndrome
