Lyrics You Can't Always Get What You Want - Ituana

You Can't Always Get What You Want

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 you just might find
You’ll get what you need.
I went down to the demonstration,
To get my fair share of abuse.
Singing we’re gonna vent our frustrations,
And 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 you might find
You’ll 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,
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,
You can’t always get what you want,
But if you try sometimes you just might find
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You’ll get what you need.
You can’t always get what you want…
