Patti Smith

I wanted to do a single and didn't have the money, and he gave it to me.

So we went into Electric Ladyland one night and did it one night.

We may look the same Shoulder to shoulder Sweating 110 degrees But I will never faint I will never faint They laugh and they expect me to faint But I will never faint I refuse to lose I refuse to fall down Because you see it's the monotony that's got to me Every afternoon like the last one Every afternoon like a rerun

I got something to hide here called desire.

I got something to hide here called desire.

And I will get out of here.

You know the love.

The fear of potion is just about to come.

In my nose is the taste of sugar.

And I've got nothing to hide here save desire.

Now I'm going to go.

I'm going to get out of here.

I'm going to get out of here.

I'm going to get on that train.

And I'm going to go on that train and go to New York City.

And I'm going to be somebody.

Robert always, when we were younger, he always thought that I should sing, although it was never really an ambition of mine.

and uh he was really happy when i wanted to do the single and he was really pleased to be a part of it had he heard you saying i mean would you sing were you singing in the house before you were singing in performance yeah you know i'd you know be making spaghetti or washing clothes and sing i don't used to sing little songs and um

for some reason he liked my singing.

He used to think I used to sing little blues songs and things.
