"Gimme Shelter" is the Rockhouse choice for the most powerful anti-war song ever written, lyrically and musically. It seems a sacrilege for Lady Gaga to tangle with it but she does one outstandingly good job of it.
"Gimme Shelter" Lyrics:
Ooh, a storm is threat'nin'
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter ooh yeah, I'm gonna fade away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away, yeah
Ooh, see the fire is sweepin'
Our very street today
Burns like a red coal carpet
Mad bull lost its way
War, children, yeah, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away, yeah
Rape, murder, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Rape, murder, yeah, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Rape, murder, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away, yea, yea, yeah
Umm, those floods is threat'nin'
My very life today
Gimme, Gimme shelter
Or I'm gonna fade away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
I tell you love, sister, it's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away It's just a kiss away
Kiss away, kiss away
