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 footloose man

You can't always get what you want

You can't always get what you want

You can't always get what you want

And if you try sometimes you will find

You get what you need

Bridge and verses: x2

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 footloose man

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

Bridge:

I went down to the demonstration

To get my fair share of abuse

Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration

If we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse"

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

ohhhh baby yeah ohhh

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 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

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 ohhhh yeah ohhh

Bridge:

You get what you need

yeah, oh baby

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 blood-stained hands

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

But if you try sometimes

well you just might find

You just might find

You get what you need ohh yeah

Bridge:

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

well you just might find

You just might find

You get what you need ohh yeah

Bridge:

x4
