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 going, to meet her connection
But I could tell, by her blood stained handsNo you cant always get, what you want
No you cant always get, what you want
No you cant always get, what you want
But if you try sometimes, you just might find
You get what you need, you get what you needI went down, to the Chelsea drug store
To get your prescription filled
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy
And man did he look pretty illAnd we decided that we would have a soda
My favorite flavor vanilla cream
And I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy
And he said one word to me and that was deadYou cant always get, what you want
No you cant always get, what you want
No you cant always get, what you want
But if you try sometimes, you just might find
You get what you need, you get what you need

You get what you needI went down, to the demonstration
To get my fair share of abuse
Saying were gonna vent, our frustration
And if we dont were gonna blow a fifty amp fuseNo you cant always get, what you want
No you cant always get, what you want
No you cant always get, what you want
But if you try sometimes, you just might find
You get what you need, you get what you needNo you cant always get, what you want
No you cant always get, what you want
No you cant always get, what you want
No you cant always get, what you want
No you cant always get, what you wantNo you cant always get, what you want
No you cant always get, what you want
No you cant always get, what you want
But if you try sometimes, you just might find
You get what you need, you get what you need
You get what you need, you get what you need
