i like "pay your dues" though it sounds like a demo. it makes
you see SFM in a whole new light, a hippie esque variation.
just what puzzles me is that Bill Wyman mentions in "Rolling
with the Stones" that the working title of SFM was "Primo Grande"
is there a version with yet another set of lyrics?

It is funny how different the chorus part is in this version compared to "Street Fighting Man". Different feel, lower register, more melodical hooks. One could say that they are actually singing there, wheras in "Street Fighting Man" Jagger just shouts it through as raw and loud as he can.

Yep. Like Keith told some time ago, he had started to work the song quite early, 1967 - in the middle of hippie psychedelia period, that is. There is a lot of that in "Everybody Pays Their Dues" still. It seemingly was rather late when Jagger got this new consciousness - Paris student demonstrations? - and transformed this promising catchy hippie song into a proto punk song representing so well the radicalism of crazy year 1968, as we can say in hindsight. Maybe a hit single was lost in the process, but we got something better and more lasting...
