Edit 2 for headphones. For crispiness and clearness...
Source file of the edit is on the cd "Around And Around" from Invasion Unlimited (IU9531-1).
Recorded in September and December of 1965. Was supposed to be included on the album "Could You Walk On The Water", in 1966, but after that album was censored by Decca, this one song was the only one from that album never to be released officially. The song was recorded at the end of the sessions for "Out of Our Heads" at RCA Studios in Hollywood on September 6, 1965.

Piano: Brian Jones. Acoustic guitars: Brian Jones & Keith Richards. Vocals: Mick Jagger. Bass: Bill Wyman. Drums: Charlie Watts.

ultimateclassicrock.com says: "The song was recorded at the end of the sessions for 'Out of Our Heads' at RCA Studios in Hollywood. Prime Keith licks abound while Charlie and Bill lay down a solid, trad rhythm, as Ian Stewart adds a nice jazzy piano. While it may have been seen at the time as a paint-by-numbers blues romp, it holds up remarkably well nearly 50 years on."

LOOKING TIRED
(Jagger/Richards)

lookin' tired babe, sittin' there on the side
you're gettin' tired babe, sittin' there on the side
ain't in the right place, to try and change the tide

you sit and read, but all you do is moan
you sit and read, but all you do is moan
ain't no wonder, you're sittin' there on your own

you're readin' the cover of a pseudo paperback
you're readin' the cover of a pseudo paperback
displays about writers, chaucer to steinbeck

you're lookin' tired babe, sittin' there on the side
you're lookin' tired babe, sittin' there on the side
it's only yourself, you're takin' for a ride

you say you won't change, but do you really care
you say you won't change, but do you really care
you can't do much just sittin' there in your chair

i said, hey babe, hey where you been all night?
i said, hey babe, hey where you been all night?
your clothes all tangled, sure ain't talkin' right

you're lookin' tired babe, sittin' there on the side
you're lookin' tired babe, sittin' there on the side
you ain't in the right place, to try and change the tide
