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 a 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 just might find
You get what you need, ah yeah, woo

And 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"

(Sing it, honey)

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, ah ,babe

Well, 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

And we decided that we'd 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"
Well, I said to him

You can't always get what you want, no
You can't always get what you want, I tell you, baby, mm
You can't always get what you want
But if you try, sometimes, you just might find
You get what you need

Oh, yeah, woo

Oh, you get what you need
Yeah, baby, alright, woo

Well, 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

(Sing it, come on)

You can't always get what you want, yeah
You can't always get what you want, yeah
You can't always get what you want
But if you try, sometimes, you just might find
You just might find
You get what you need

Oh, yeah, woo

Baby, come on, yeah

You can't always get what you want, no no, baby
You can't always get what you want, you can't now, now
You can't always get what you want
But if you try, sometimes, you just might find
You get what you need
You get what you need, no, yeah

Oh, baby
You get what you need, ooh, ooh, ooh

You can't always get what you want, baby, oh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Mm-mm, baby
Oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh yeah
Oh-oh, ooh, oh, yeah, baby
Oh-oh yeah
Oh-oh yeah
No, you can't always get what you want, yeah
Well, you can't always get what you want
But you can get what you need, yeah, baby
