You Can`t Always Get What You Want — текст песни (Rusted Root)

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
