Lyrics
Say you stand by your man
Tell me something I don't understand
You said you love me and that's a fact
Then you left me, said you felt trapped
Well some things you can explain away
But my heartache's in me till this day
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way
All the times
When we were close
I'll remember these things the most
I see all my dreams come tumbling down
I won't be happy without you around
So all alone I keep the wolves at bay
There is only one thing that I can say
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way
You must explain why this must be
Did you lie when you spoke to me
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Now I got a job
But it don't pay
I need new clothes
I need somewhere to stay
But without all these things I can do
But without your love I won't make it through
But you don't understand my point of view
I suppose there's nothing I can do
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way
You must explain why this must be
Did you lie when you spoke to me?
Did you stand by me
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way

[@steveg1107]

Please buy this album! London Calling. I got it the first time I heard this song. I spent weeks trying to find it in stores. I bought one cassette that turned out to be country. 😢 When I finally found it, it became the soundtrack for two years of my life. All I would listen to was this and The Cars. But then it was 90% this album. Some of the songs from this album have been in movies. "Rudy Can't Fail," another of my favorites, was in a John Cusack movie. My brother would play the drums on the perfectly aligned dash in front of him and we would sing and laugh. We were the only 2 people I knew who listened to it and that made it even better. Then in 1990, Rolling Stone named it the greatest album of the 80's (actually came out in 1979). Then Sandinista, then the album where everyone started loving them, Combat Rock. With Should I Stay or Should I Go and Rock the Casbah (whatever the heck that is). Happy for their success, but sad that they weren't just mine (and my brothers anymore). Crap! How many words have I just typed? Sorry

From atart to finish, London Calling is everything

[@spiff2268]

This song was actually a bonus track on London Calling, at least on the cassette tape I had. I bought my copy some time in the mid eighties and this song wasn't listed on the cover. Then after the last song on side two this popped up. I was like "Hey, I've heard this awesome song on the radio quite a few times!" (It was the 80s so of course I said "awesome".)

[@kymanbedford-brown1323]

I'd say awesome too!

[@balloontram]

I think this song was originally meant to be on a free 'flexidisc' given away with NME (could be wrong about the magazine). But The Clash decided it was too good and included it on 'London Calling' at the last minute. Hence no track listing.

[@ifwecouldvote]

This sounds like a motown song, very cool!

[@AttitudeCharter]

Never get tired of hearing this. Always lifts your spirits.

[@rapidmc1521]

The Clash was underrated, one of the best bands of the 80s

[@wadethompson-wb7kl]

The Clash was everything U2 wished they were.

[@jamesbelljr7987]
