You Can't Always Get What You Want
[00:01.24]I saw her today at the reception
[00:08.08]A glass of wine in her hand
[00:13.53]I knew she would meet her connection
[00:19.24]At her feet was her footloose man
[00:24.42]
[00:24.95]No, you can't always get what you want
[00:31.01]You can't always get what you want
[00:36.89]You can't always get what you want
[00:42.61]But if you try sometime you find
[00:48.00]You get what you need
[00:50.73]
We went down to the demonstration
To get your fair share of abuse
Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration
If we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse"
[05:20.29][03:48.73][02:34.15]You can't always get what you want
[05:25.49][03:54.34][02:39.41]You can't always get what you want
[05:30.82][03:59.46][02:45.03]You can't always get what you want
[05:35.91][04:04.64][02:50.46]But if you try sometimes well you just might find
[05:38.85][04:09.61][02:55.23]You get what you need
[02:57.51]
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 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
[05:40.83]You get what you need
[05:42.92]
