1973  The Rolling Stones UK and US Charts  Sad Day

Originally recorded on December 3, 1965, and released first in the US as a B-side of '19th Nervous Breakdown' on February 11, 1966, 'Sad Day' was issued in 1973 as a single in the UK - and most of the world but the US - and was an attempt for Decca to promote the band's back catalogue through the compilation album 'No Stone Unturned' [supposedly B-sides and rare tracks].
Coupled with 'You Can't Always Get What You Want' - which previously was the B-side of the 1969' single 'Honky Tonk Women' - the single did not chart.

Sad Day
[Mick Jagger / Keith Richards]

Someone woke me up this mornin' and I lit a cigarette
Found myself when I stopped yawnin', started getting myself dressed
Then I felt I had a dream, I remembered the things I'd seen
I could still hear the things you said with that bad dream in my head
It was a sad day, bad day, sad day, bad day
So I called you on the phone and your friend said "she's not home"
So I told her where I'd be at and that you should call me back
Then I looked at the morning mail, I was not even expecting a bill
The Rolling Stones - Sad DayYour letter a-started "Dear", and it left me with these tears.
It was a sad day, bad day, sad day, bad day

Think of the times that we had rows, but we patched them up somehow
Think of the times I tried to go, but you screamed and told me no
There is only one thing in this world that I can't understand, that's a girl
I keep a-readin' the things you said, like a bad dream in my head
It was a sad day, bad day, sad day, bad day

Oh, what a sad, sad, old day - a sad, old day
It was a sad, old day
A sad, old day. It was a bad, old day,
sad old day a bad old day
If there is one awful thing in this world that I can't understand, that's a girl
It was a sad, sad old day, sad old day
It was a sad, old day
