Can't Always Get What You Want Lyrics

I saw her today at the reception

Glass of wine in her hand

I knew she would make her connection

At her feet was a footloose man

chorus:

You can't always get what you want,

You can't always get what you want,

You can't always get what you want,

But if you try sometimes you just might find

You get what you need.

You get what you need

Well I went down to the demonstration

Just to get my fair share of abuse

Singing 'were gonna vent our frustration

And if we don't, we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse'

chorus:

You can't always get what you want,

You can't always get what you want,

You can't always get what you want,

But if you try sometimes you just might find

You'll get what you need.

You'll get what you need

Well I went to the Chelsea drugstore

Just to get your prescription filled

I was in line with Mr. Jimmy

And man, man did he look ill

We decided that we should get a cola

My favorite flavor cherry red

I sang my song to Mr.Jimmy

And he said one word to me and that was 'dead'

And I said to him

chorus:

You can't always get what you want,

You can't always get what you want,

You can't always get what you want,

But if you try sometimes you just might find

You'll get what you need.

You'll get what you need.

I saw her today at the reception

In her glass was a bleeding man

She was practice in the arts of deception

You can tell it by the blood stains on her hands

chorus:

You can't always get what you want,

You can't always get what you want,

You can't always get what you want,

But if you try sometimes you might find

You'll get what you need.

chorus:

You can't always get what you want,

You can't always get what you want,

You can't always get what you want,

But if you try sometimes you might find

You'll get what you need.

You'll get what you need.
