You Can`t Always Get What You Want — текст песни (Rolling Stones)

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 might find
You get what you need

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

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

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 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 get what you need

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

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

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
