You Can’t Always Get What You Want P. P. Arnold

I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she would meet her connection
And at her feet was her footloose man

You know you can't always get what you want
You know you can't always get what you want
You know you can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
You know you just might find
You get what you need, yeah

And I went down to demonstration
To get my fair share of abuse
Singing: "We're gonna vent our frustration
And if we don't we're gonna blow a fifty-amp fuse"

You know you can't always get what you want
People will tell you that you know you can't always get what you want
You better believe you know you can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
You know that you just might find
You get what you need, yeah
Yeah

I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled
And I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy
And man, did he look pretty ill
