When 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:
Now, you can't always get what you want
Now, you can't always get what you want
Now, you can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
You just might find
You get what you need, oh yeah
You get what you need
Verse 2:
So I went down to the demonstration
To get my fair shares of abuse
Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration
And if we don't, we're going to blow a 50-amp fuse"
Sing it
Chorus:
You can't always get what you want, mmm
Now, you can't always get what you want
Now, you can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
Well, you just might find
You get what you need, truly
Verse 3:
So 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 to have a soda
What's your favorite flavor? Cherry red
And I sung my song to my friend Jimmy
And he said one word back to me, that was "Death"
And I said
Chorus:
Now, you can't always get what you want
Now, you can't always get what you want
Now, you can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
Yeah, you just might find
You get what you need
Post-Chorus:
Wow, hmm, oh yeah
Now, mmm, mmm, yeah, ah yeah
You get what you need
Come on, Ronnie, oh
Yeah, ah yeah
Bridge:
Hah!
Always get
Now you can't, sing with me
Sing, ah
Now you can't get what you want
Now, you can't get what you want
Chorus:
Yeah, you can't always get what you want
Yeah, you can't always get what you want
Now, you can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
Yeah, you might find
You get what you need
Ah yeah, ah yeah
Yeah, you can't always get what you want
Ah no, you can't always get what you want
Now, you cant always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
Yeah, you just might find
You get what you need
(Sometimes, you do)
