Mr. Brownstone Lyrics
Get outta bed around nine
And I don't worry about nothin' no
Cause worryin's a waste of my... time
The show usually starts around seven
We go on stage around nine
Get on the bus about eleven
Sippin' a drink and feelin' fine
Chorus:
We been dancin' with
Mr. Brownstone
He's been knockin'
He won't leave me alone
I used ta do a little but a little wouldn't do
So the little got more and more
I just keep tryin' ta get a little better
Said a little better than before
I used ta do a little but a little wouldn't do
So the little got more and more
I just keep tryin' ta get a little better
Said a little better than before
Chorus
Now I get up around whenever
I used ta get up on time
But that old man he's a real muthafucker
Gonna kick him on down the line

Actually, you all are fairly off. This song has nothing to do with Axl. The band had already clarified the meaning for this song. "Slash relates that the song was written by him and Izzy Stradlin while they were at Izzy and his girlfriend Desi's apartment. He states that they were sitting around, complaining about being heroin addicts, when they started improvising lyrics and music ("Brownstone" is a slang term for heroin). When they had the lyrics all together, they wrote it down on the back of a grocery bag and brought it to Axl. Slash says the lyrics describe a typical day in the life of Slash and Izzy."

Brownstone may be heroin, or any drug any way somehow. At first you do a little, these are the first dances but the little wouldnt do so you do more and more, and around this time of his life, having shows, waking early and dancing more and more with mr brownstone, it seems like axl(or whoever wrote it) wants to quit that drug, -gonna kick him off the line!-

yes it is most definatly about heroin, heroin comes very often in a brown clump, thus brownstone, also it is very addictive let me tell u

yes it is definatly about heroin,axel is one of the biggest heroin addicts on the planet, in fact i give him madd props for still being alive after all the heroin he has done, also heroin very often times comes in a brown clump, thus brownstone, and also it is very addicting another thing talked about in the song, please do not put a post that is not true , master of puppets, and omega.
the only thing is that axl didnt write this song, Izzy Stradlin did, and slash helped, yes axl was an addict, but do you really think axl would let velvet revolver perform this song as well? lol
