Lyrics
[Intro] I saw her today at the reception A glass of wine in her hands I knew she was gonna meet her connection At her feet was a footloose man Now 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 Oh, yeah, you get what you need Yeah, ain't that the truth yeah? [Verse] Oh, sing it pretty And I went down to the demonstration, yeah To get my fair shares of abuse Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration And if we don't, we going to blow a 50-amp fuse" Sing it [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 Yeah, baby, if you try sometimes Oh, you might find You get what you need Yeah, I wouldn't lie to you, baby [Verse] And I went down to the Chelsea drugstore To get your prescriptions filled I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy Yeah man, did he look pretty ill We decided we would have a soda Yeah, what's your favorite flavor? Oh, cherry red I sung my song to my friend Jimmy Yeah, he turned 'round and said one word to me, and that was "death" [Chorus] I said you can't always get what you want Yeah, you can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want Yeah, baby, if you try sometimes Yeah, you get what you need Yeah, baby Ain't it true sometime? [Solos] Ooh yeah Oh yeah Oh yeah yeah yeah Oh baby Shicka? Yeah and I saw her today at the reception In her glass was a bleeding man She was practiced at the arts of deception Yeah, I could tell, I could tell by her blood-stained hands, yeah [Outro] 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 Yeah, if you try sometimes, yeah, you just might find You just might find you get what you need, yeah ? Let's do one more Yeah you can't always get what you want (no, baby) You can't always get what you want Yeah, you can't always get what you want Yeah, but if you try sometimes, you just might find You get what you need Yeah!
