You Can't Always Get What You Want

The Rolling Stones


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 her 
foot loose man.

(Chorus)
And you can't always get what you want, Honey
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometime,
Yeah, you just might find you get what you need!

We went down to the demonstration to get our fair share of abuse,
Singing, "We gonna vent our frustration. 
If we don't we'll blow a fifty amp fuse
So, I went to the Chelsea Drug store to get your prescription filled
I was standing in line with your friend, Jimmy, and man, did he 
look pretty ill
We decided that we would have a soda, my fav'rite was cherry red
I sing this song to my friend, Jimmy
And he said one word to me and that was "dead"

(Chorus)

I saw her today at the reception, in her glass was a bleeding man
She was practised at the art of deception;
I could tell by her blood stained hands

(Repeat Chorus)
