You're all going to kill me, but this is one track on the album that I haven't listened to more than twice. I love most of the album, but just not too interested in hearing this kind of thing...
Perhaps I'm crazy, because the other track on HD that I don't care for, and haven't listed to more than a couple of times is the near-unanimous favourite SSofH... Just too bombastic for my tastes.
Now ducking to avoid rotten veg projectiles...

Love the song but definitly my least listened to track.

Their performance on this track is phenomenal. The sparseness of so few instruments means you can really focus on the individual parts, vocals, harmonica and guitar.
For me that harmonica is unbelievable. It transports you to the place described in the lyrics. The interplay with the guitar is phenomenal.
Including this track, which wasn't necessary in terms of album length, was the true "bonus" track on HD. Brilliant.

I realize Andy pushed them to record this one and he considers it one of the better one. It representing the full circle from their original blues formation makes sense too. But, it's just not a good or catchy song at all. I find it boring and now it's the only song I skip.

This is what I find most interesting about the subjective nature of music fandom. This blues is easily my favorite song on the album and I would skip Angry (which I find whiny and annoying) and the one that sounds like a cheap rewrite of You Can’t Always Get What You Want!

Why the Stones did not record the whole lyrics ?
The 4th part is missing:
“Well I feel yes I feel,
Baby like that low-down time ain't long
I'm gonna catch the first thing smokin’,
Back, back down the road I'm goin’
Back down the road I'm goin’
Back down the road I'm goin’
Sure 'nough back, sure 'nough back”

Most likely because they wanted to end it with “…he’s gonna be a rolling stone”.
