Armenia, Egypt and Bulgaria are missing re my post above. England (The sweet old country where I come from), too.

I made a couple of judgment calls. Adjectives (e.g. Armenian, Bulgarian) don't count. Hang Fire doesn't specifically use the word England, nor does Blinded By Love specifically use the word Egypt.

Here is an obscure one:

Place referenced: The Marfa Lights

Song: "No Spare Parts"

Album: Some Girls (Deluxe Edition) Disc 2

Quote from song: "I saw the lights of Marfa; guess it was the scenic route"

Comment: After having traveled by car in North America to 43 US states, 5 Canadian provinces, 28 Mexican states, plus Guatemala, I had never heard of "The Marfa Lights" until just 5 years ago, when doing a road trip from The Big Bend of Texas to Big Sur of California, I came by a special rest stop near Marfa, Texas in the far western part of the state which is a viewing location for mysterious unexplained lights that are sometimes visible in the far distance across the desert to the south. So Jagger or Richards had heard of these way back in 1978 or so?

I don't think there was a reference to the lights of Marfa in 1978. It was a 2011 addition when the lyrics were reworked.

Another Munich (Highwire) Ooooh ... that's a tough call. After much deliberation, judges say "NO", since the song is clearly referring to the Munich Agreement, not the city itself.
'Barney's' (So Young) BLOODY HELL, YES
"Under services" - I mean Keith himself says to look him up there HA! NO

Kentucky (Dead Flowers) Ooooh, another tough call. But judges say "NO" because it is referring to Kentucky Derby Day. We know the person he's singing about (Little Susie) is in back of her rose pink Cadillac, it's Kentucky Derby Day, and she's making bets. (Or is it even Kentucky Derby Day? Maybe it's another day, and she's making bets about what will happen on Kentucky Derby Day.)

But we don't know where that pink Caddy is. It could be in Kentucky. Or Bora Bora. Who knows.
