///You can't always get what you want///
(Mick Jagger / Keith Richards)
I saw her today at the reception.
A glass of wine in her hand.
I knew she would meet her connection.
At her feet was her footloose man.
No, 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 sometime
you find you get what you need.)
I saw her today at the reception.
A glass of wine in her hand.
I knew she was gonna meet her connection.
And at her feet was footloose man.
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 get what you need.
Oh, baby.
And I went down to the demonstration,
to get my fair share of abuse.
Singing: “We're gonna vent our frustration,
if we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse!"
Said to them:
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
well you just might find you get what you need.
Oh, baby, yeah, yeah, oh.
I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
to get your prescription filled.
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy
and man, did he look pretty ill.
We decided that we would have a soda,
my favorite flavor, cherry red.
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy, yeah,
and he said one word to me, and that was “dead!"
I said to him:
You can't always get what you want, Lord.
You can't always get what you want.
You can't always get what you want, no.
But if you try sometimes
you just might find, huh, you get what you need.
Oh, yeah.
You get what you need - yeah, oh, baby, oh, yeah.
I saw her today at the reception.
In her glass was a bleeding man.
She was practiced at the art of deception.
Well, I could tell by her bloodstained hands.
Said:
You can't always get what you want, yeah.
You can't always get what you want, oh.
You can't always get what you want.
But if you try sometimes you just might find,
you just might find you get what you need.
Oh, yeah, oh, baby.
You can't always get what you want, no, no, baby.
You can't always get what you want, na, na, na
You can't always get what you want, mmm.
But if you try sometimes you just might find,
