You Can't Always Get What You Want

Well, I saw her today at the reception

A glass of wine in her hand

Well, I knew she was gonna meet her connection

At her feet was her 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 sometime, you might find

You get what you need

You get what you need

So 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

So 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 sometime, you might find

You get what you need, ah yeah, ah my my my

Well, I saw her today at the reception

In her glass was a bleeding man

She was practiced at the art of deception

I could tell by her blood-stained hands

Well, I said to her

You can't always get what you want, no no no no no

You can't always get what you want, no

You can't always get what you want

But if you try sometime, you might find

You get what you need, ah yeah

You can't always get what you want

You can't always get what you want

You can't always get what you want

You can't always get what you want

You can't always get what you want

You can't always get what you want

Well, the brother said

You can't get what you want

You can't, well, the mother said

You can't get what you want

You can't, you can't, you can't, what you want

You can't get what you want

You can't, you can't, you can't, what you want

She's just the kind of girl I would call a lady

She's half a woman and half a child, ooh yeah

But she sure like to drive a boy crazy

Well, believe me, man, she's one of a kind, oh yeah

I got horned, I got horned

She showed me things that I never knew

And gave me hootchie-kootchie lovin' all night through

Yeah, that's right baby

Some call her Sue, some call her Honey

Well, she never ever heard the word no

Addicted to love, sex, money

If you got the dollars, she will cut you off

I got horned, I got horned

She showed me things that I never knew

And gave me hootchie-kootchie lovin' all night through

Well, alright baby

Believe me, boys

I got horned, I got horned

She showed me things that I never knew

And gave me hootchie-kootchie lovin' all night through

I got horned, I got horned

She showed me things that I never knew

And gave me hootchie-kootchie lovin' all night through

I got horned, I got horned

She showed me things that I never knew

And gave me hootchie-kootchie lovin' all night through
