THE ROLLING STONES LYRICS

Play this Song

"You Can't Always Get What You Want"

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
No, 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 find
You get what you need
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
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 well you might find
You get what you need
And I went down to the demonstration
To get my fair share of abuse
Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration
If we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse"
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 well you just might find
You get what you need
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
We decided that we would have a soda
My favorite flavor, cherry red
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy
Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was "dead"
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 sometimes you just might find
You get what you need
You get what you need--yeah, oh baby
I saw her today at the reception
In her glass was a bleeding man
She was practiced at the art of deception
Well I could tell by her blood-stained hands
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 just might find
You just might find
You get what you need
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 just might find
You just might find
You get what you need

Time to clean up is coming.
Gentlemen and ladies: start you engines.
Let's be thankful for now and ready in November.

Thanks for that! I have enjoyed Buddy Guy for decades. First saw him at a night club in Boston back in the VERY early 70s when he was doing shows with Jr. Wells. They were quite the duo back in the day. He played in Montana this month... wish I could've gone to see that show.

Also from A-Z music

"Gimme Shelter"

Oh, a storm is threat'ning
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Ooh, see the fire is sweepin'
Our very street today
Burns like a red coal carpet
Mad bull lost your way
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Rape, murder!
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Rape, murder!
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Rape, murder!
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
The floods is threat'ning
My very life today
Gimme, gimme shelter
Or I'm gonna fade away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
I tell you love, sister, it's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
Kiss away, kiss away

I just saw a documentary on famous backup singers and she was one of them. They also had the story of the original recording of the song. Well worth the watch with a long section on Lisa Fischer.

She gives me chills, a force of nature.

This is my favorite Lisa F. Gimme Shelter, and suprisingly much slower but bad video quality sadly.

pick up meds for my girlfriend at a pharmacy at 23rd & 7th. I knew the Chelsea to which the song refers is in London (their producer Jimmy Miller was strung out & 'man, did he look pretty ill'). But every time, I'd sing:

I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled
I was standin' in line with Mr. Jimmy

With a biscuit?

We're sharing it right now. Nom nom nom. Sip sip sip. Yummy. Thanks for posting that great version of the song, littlemisssmartypants.

Another woman prominently featured in 50 Feet From Stardom is in your video. She's the background singer on the left (on stage right). Can't recall her name but she's amazing. She's also background singer for David Bowie performing Heroes at Wembley Stadium for Live Aid. She's backed up tons of great performers and is now embarking on another attempt at a solo career. Someone here will remember her name. See that movie!

Have a great weekend. Love, peace, and congratulations on blowing up your television.
