(You can't always get what you want)
(But if you try sometimes)
(You'll find)
(You get what you need)
And I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she would meet her connection
At her feet was a footloose man
Ah, you can't always get what you want
But you can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
Oh, you just might find
You get what you need
Oh, I went down to the demonstration
To get my fair share of abuse
Singing: We're gonna vent our frustration
And if we don't, then, well, we'll blow a 50-amp fuse
Ah, you can't always get what you want
Oh, you can't always get what you want
No, you can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
Well, you just might find
You get what you need
Oh
Oh, you can't always get what you want
Oh, you can't always get what you want
Oh, you can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
You just might find
That you get what you need
Oh, yeah
