Bilingual
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 her footloose man
And I said
That you can't always get what you want, honey
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
Well, you might just find
You get what you need, ah
Yeah, yeah, so
I went down to the Chelsea drug store
To get your prescription filled
I was standing in line with your friend, Jimmy
A man, did he look pretty ill
We decided that we would have a soda
My favourite flavour is cherry red
I sung my song to my friend, Mr. Jimmy
And he said one word to me, and that was there that I felt
That you can't always get what you want
And you cannot always get the man that you want
And you cannot always get the man that you want
But if you try sometimes, you just might find
You just might find
Find, find, to get by
Find, find, find, yeah
Oh, baby
Oh, yeah
Now, hit me
ย
Yeah
Bye-bye, yea
Woo!
Yeah
Oh, yeah
I saw her today at the reception
In her glass was a bleeding man
She was practised at the art of deception
I could tell by her blood-stained hands, and I'll say it
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
Mam, you can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes, you just might find
You just might find
You get what you need, oh, yeah
And you can't always get what you want
And you can't always satisfy your greed
And you can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes, you just might find
You just might find
You get what you need
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Baby
Oh, baby
Oh, baby
