You Can't Always Get What You Want

To get your prescriptions filled
At her feet was her footloose man
But if you try sometimes you just might find
And I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
No, you can't always get what you want
To get my fair shares of abuse

I could tell by her blood-stained hands
Oh, you can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes, you just might find
And she was practised that the art of deception

You can't always get what you want
I said

And he said one word back to me, that was "Dead"

You can't always get what you want
And if we don't, we don't blow a 50-amp fuse", yeah
No, you can't always get what you want
Oh, you can't always get what you want
And I went down to the demonstration
Oh, you can't always get what you want
Well, no, you can't always get what you want
And I sung my song to my friend Jimmy
Oh, you can't always get what you want
Oh, you can't always get what you want
You get what you need
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
But if you try sometime, you just might find
And I saw her today at the reception
"Whatcha favorite flavor?", "Cherry red"

In her glass was a bleeding man
Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration
Oh, you can't always get what you want

No, you can't always get what you want
Oh, you can't always get what you want

And man, did he look pretty ill
I was standin' in line with Mr. Jimmy

Oh, you can't always get what you want
Oh, you can't always get what you want
You get what you need, baby
Oh, you can't always get what you want

I knew she would go meet her connection
And no, you can't always get what you want
You get what you need
We decided to have a soda
No, you can't always get what you want
