The Rolling Stones invited Buddy Guy onstage to cover Muddy Waters ‘Champagne and Reefer’.
The band performed the track with Guy at a show in New York during 2006, later shown in the Martin Scorsese documentary ‘Shine A Light’.
Lyrics
Give me champagne when I'm thirsty Give me a reefer when I want to get high Give me champagne when I'm thirsty Give me a reefer when I want to get high Give me a woman when I get lonely And set her right down here by my side (well, your turn)
Lord there shouldn't be no law When a man want to smoke a little dope (hey Mick) Lord there shouldn't be no law When a man want to smoke a little dope Yeah,
Yeah, every time I get high Yeah, I lay my head down on my baby's breast (well) Every time I get high I want to lay down on my baby's breast
Well you know she hugged and kissed me, baby She said Buddy Guy you are the best
I want to get high this mornin' Just to sho' is my name I want to get high this mornin', Mick Just to sho' is my name You can bet my bottom dollar, Keith I ain't gonna use no cocaine
Give me champagne when I'm thirsty Give me a weed when I want to get high Give me champagne when I'm thirsty Give me a reefer when I want to get high Give me a woman when I get lonely Lay down by my baby's side
Give me a woman when I get lonely Lay down by my baby's side
