Gimmie Shelter Lyrics - Grand Funk Railroad

Oooo, oooo, oooo. 

Oooo, oooo, oooo. 

Oooo, a storm is threatenin', my very life today. 

If I don't get some shelter, oh, I'm gonna' fade away. 

Chorus 

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. 

Oooo, see the fire sweeping, up every street today. 

Burns like a red-coal carpet, mad bull lost it's way. 

Chorus 

Rape, murder, 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. 

Rape, murder, it's just a shot away, it's just a shot away. 

Oooo, a storm is threatenin', my very life today. 

If I don't get some shelter, oh, 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 said a 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, kiss away, kiss away. 

Chorus 

Chorus 

Love sister, it's just a kiss away, it's just a kiss away. 

Love sister, it's just a kiss away, it's just a kiss away. 

War children, it's just a shot away, it's just a shot away. 

Love sister, it's just a kiss away, it's just a kiss away. 

War children, it's just a shot away, it's just a shot away. 

Love sister, it's just a kiss away, it's just a kiss away. 

(repeat alternation to fade)
