Sway is a good alternative. "Tops" from Tattoo you, "Wild horses", also good ones. In case I am not able to debate the subject at my own funural: Now you know!

While I like it...technically a Bill Wyman solo song.

I was joking, but now that you've mentioned it, I always wondered why they credited that song to Bill Wyman as the artist on a Rolling Stones record where at least two other band members appear on the track?

I read somewhere, that the only reason why they even used it (or probably more likely, Bill got credit), was because they were distracted by all the hype around their drug arrests.

When it came down to it, they used it because it was good, relative to the other material. Why they didn't make it a "Rolling Stones song" was because they didn't want to set any precident with anyone else getting writing credits on a "Rolling Stones" song.
Not sure if that is true, but it's logical given the virtual lock on the songwriting credits ever since.

Shaddap You Face.

And-a Mama used to say all-a time:
"What's-a matter you? Hey!
Got-a no respect
Whadda-you tink you do
Why you look-a so sad
It's-a not so bad
It's-a nice-a place
Ah, shaddap-a you face."

Could be...I actually think it's one of the stronger cuts on that record. When Mick comes in on the chorus ("Is this some kind of joke?..." ) it's killer.

Mine isn't a Stones song, so I would have to put "slightly OT" in the funeral program "In My Hour of Darkness" from Gram Parsons.

I have two choices, perhaps one is a bit cliche though: My Way by Sinatra
and the full Shine On you Crazy Diamond suite by Pink Floyd. If I've led a particularly bad life, I'm thinking AC/DC Highway to Hell. But Stones speaking, The Last Time.
(You Can't Always Get What You Want is automatically disqualified for its association with the movie The Big Chill.)

It must be something that includes the essence:
guitar intro, rhythm section, riffs, refrain, bridge, solo,
fadeout

Gimme Shelter or Tumbling Dice, to me
the best compositions by anyone.
