You Can't Always Get What You Want

I saw her today at the reception a glass of wine in her hand
I knew she was going to meet her connection
I could tell by her blood stained hands
You can’t always get what you want
You can’t always get what you want
No you can’t always get what you want but if you try sometimes well you might find you get what you need
I went down to the
Chelsea drug store 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 vanilla cream and
I sung my song to
Mr. Jimmy and he said one word to me and that was dead
You can’t always get what you want
You can’t always get what you want
No you can’t always get what you want but if you try sometimes well you might find you get what you need
I went down to the demonstration
To get my fair share of abuse
Saying we’re gonna vent our frustration
And if we don’t we’re gonna blow a fifty amp fuse (c) 2002
