I saw her today at the reception |
|
A glass of wine in her hand |
|
I know she would call me, 'The connection' |
|
At her feet was her footloose man |
|
No, 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 sometime you just might find |
|
You get what you need, baby |
|
Yea and 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 to have a soda |
|
My favorite flavor, cherry red |
|
I sung my song to my friend Jimmy |
|
Yeah, and he said one word last to me, and I was Dead, I say |
|
And you can't always get what you want |
|
No you can't always get what you want |
|
You can't always get what you want |
|
If you try sometimes, now you just might find, you just might find |
|
You get what you need |
|
No you can't always get what you want |
|
You can't always get what you want |
|
Alright now you can't always get what you want |
|
Yea, but if you try, you just might find, you just might find |
|
You get what you need |
|
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 you just might find, you just might find |
|
You get what you need |
