I'm the man on the mountain, come on up
I'm the plowman in the valley with a face full of mud
Yes, I'm fumbling and I know my car don't start
Yes, I'm stumbling and I know I play a bad guitar

Give me little drink
From your loving cup
Just one drink and I'll fall down drunk yeah

I'm the man who walks the hillside in the sweet summer sun
I'm the man that brings you roses when you ain't got none
Well I can run and jump and fish, but I won't fight
You if you want to push and pull with me all night

Give me little drink
From you loving cup
Just one drink and I'll fall down drunk yeah

I feel so humble with you tonight
Just sitting in front of the fire
See your face dancing in the flame
Feel your mouth kissing me again
What a beautiful buzz, what a beautiful buzz
What a beautiful buzz, what a beautiful buzz
Oh, what a beautiful buzz, what a beautiful buzz

Yes, I am nitty gritty and my shirt's all torn
But I would love to spill the beans with you till dawn

Give me little drink
From your loving cup
Just one drink and I'll fall down drunk

Give me little drink
Give me little drink
Give me little drink
Give me little drink
Give me little drink

Give me little drink (keep on lovin', keep on lovin')
Give me little drink
Give me little drink (let's slow it down baby)
Give me little drink
Give me little drink
Give me little drink

Give me little drink
Give me little drink
Give me little drink

    One of the Stones' tenderest and romantic songs. It's rough and it's tender at the same time, vulnerable without being sissy, that is a rare feat in pop music. A great example of the unique vibe that only the Stones bring.
