Lyrics

[Intro]
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 a footloose man
[Intro]
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 sometimes, you'll find you get what you need
[Verse 1]
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
[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
Well, you might find you get what you need
Ah, yeah
[Verse 2]
And I went down to the demonstration
To get my fair share of abuse
Singin', "We're gonna vent our frustration"
If we don't, we're gonna blow a fifty amp fuse
Sing it to me, honey
[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
Well, you just might find you get what you need
Oh, baby, yeah
Ah
[Verse 3]
I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled
I was standin' 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
[Chorus]
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want, I tell you, baby
You can't always get what you want, no
But if you try sometimes, you just might find
You get what you need
Oh, yes
Woo
[Chorus]
You get what you need
Yeah, oh, baby
Oh, yeah
[Verse 4]
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, sing it
[Outro]
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 just might find
You get what you need
Oh, yes
Ah, yeah, woo
[Outro]
Ah, you can't always get what you want, no, no, baby
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 just might find
That you, you get what you need, ah, yeah
Ah, yeah, do that
