ROLLING STONES LYRICS
Claudine
Written about singer-actress Claudine Longet, Andy Williams's ex wife. In March
1976, she killed her live-in boyfriend, Olympian ski racer Vladimir "Spider"
Sabich in their Aspen Colorado home. She only spent 30 days in jail. The trial
preceded O.J. Simpson's by nearly two decades. But like Simpson, Longet hired high-powered
defense teams -- and got off easy, in the minds of many. .Song recorded in November of
1977, but never released because of the fear of litigation.
Vocals:Mick Jagger Guitars: Keith Richard, Mick Jagger Bass:
Bill Wyman Piano: Ian
Stewart Drums: Charlie Watts
Claudine
(Jagger/Richards)
Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine's back in jail (again)
Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine
Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine's back in jail (again)
She only does it at weekends
Claudine
Oh, Claudine
Now only Spider knows for sure
But he ain't talkin' about it any more
Is he, Claudine?
There's blood in the chalet
And blood in the snow
(She)Washed her hands of the whole damn show
The best thing you could do, Claudine
Shot him once right through the head
Shot him twice right through the chest
The judge says (ruled) it was an accident
Claudine
Accidents will happen
(In the best homes)
And Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine
(Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine) [additional chorus]
I'll tell you something
Now Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine
Tell you one more
Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine's back in jail again
Huh Claudine?
Oh Claudine...
Oooo ...
What about the children, baby?
Poor, poor children
Now I threaten my wife with a gun
I always leave the safety on
I recommend it
Claudine
Now she pistol whipped me once or twice
But she never tried to take my life
(What do you think about that)
Claudine
The prettiest girl I ever seen
I saw you on the movie screen
Hope you don't try to make a sacrifice of me
Claudine
(Don't get trigger happy with me)
Don't wave a gun at me
(Claudine)
I said Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine
I said Claudine's back in jail again
Claudine's back in jail again
She only does it at weekends
Claudine
Keith, will you put that weapon down?
Oh Claudine
Oh Claudine
