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.

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 Drugstore to get your prescription filled.
I was standing in line with my friend, Mr. Jimmy.
And man, did he look pretty ill.
We decided that we would have a soda,
My fav'rite flavor was cherry red.
I sing this song to my friend, Jimmy,
And he said one word to me and that was "dead."

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!

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.

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!

And you can' always get what you want, honey,
You can't always get what you want,
You cant always get what you want,
But if you try sometime, yeah,
You just might find you get what you need!
