Why the hell is this song called Downtown Suzie when Mick is singing about Lucy from Newport Street with a ten-ers worth of aching balls? Maybe I've had too much beer n red wine celebrating another Stones European tour? Anyway always preferred Jiving Sister Fanny

It was originally titled "Downtown Lucy" apparently. Don't know whether Bill changed it or the record company did. Or it may have simply been a mistake.
Good little track though.

Cheers Kyle. Funnily enough I have a Beggars boot cd where it's listed as Downtown Lusie rough mix.

It was called Lisle Street Lucy, like the lyric says. Lisle Street was known for brothels and prostitutes, like Lucy ("with the clientele."). No idea why it was renamed, unless it's some sort of Dylanesque joke.

Thanks for the info...If your a Rolling Stone...everyone else lives downtown...
