You Can`t Always Get What You Want Lyrics

You Can`t Always Get What You Want lyrics

I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand.
I knew she
was gonna meet her connection,
At her feet was a 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 just might
find 
You get what you need!

I went down to the demonstration
To
get our fair share of abuse,
Singing, "We gonna vent our
frustration."
If we don't we're gonna blow a fifty amp fuse.

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!

So, I went to the Chelsea
Drugstore
To get your prescription filled.
I was standing in line with my
friend, Mr. Jimmy.
And man, did he look pretty ill.
We decided that we
would have a soda,
My favorite flavour was cherry red.
I song my song to
Mr. Jimmy,
And he said one word to me and that was "dead."
And
I said to him

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!

I saw her today at the reception.
In her glass was a
bleeding man.
She was practiced at the art of deception;
I could tell by
her blood-stained hands.

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!

Aww
Yeah!

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!
