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

And 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 get what you need

We went down to the demonstration

To get our fair share of abuse

Singing we're gonna vent our frustration

If we don't we're blow a 50-amp fuse

And 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 get what you need
