 "WHAT LOVE LOOKS LIKE"

MIREL WAGNER

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhZe3-oRIdk

 Through thick and thin
That's what they say
Forgive and forget
Well it's me that has to change
Is this what love looks like?
Is this what love looks like?

Your endless needs
My breaking grieves
You look this way
But you don't see
Is this what love looks like?
Is this what love looks like?

My body is framed
My soul is stained
All things good
Will be washed away
Is this what love looks like?
Is this what love looks like?

This pain I breathe
Has poisened me
Dreamt a dream
Now I'm spitting bitter tears

Through thick and thin
That's what they say
Forgive and forget
Well it's me that has to change
Is this what love looks like?
Is this what love looks like?

This is what love looks like
Is this what love looks like?
This is what love looks like
Is this what love looks like?

 "ELLIPSIS"

MIREL WAGNER 

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f69qe68hwfE

 

Well, speaking of a heartache, he were hiding in plain sight
Laughing the loudest but your smile don't reach your eyes
Come home, come home now
You know that's where you want to be
And time will bring you to your knees

Waiting is a long time, not all for you to die
You're laughing the loudest but your smile don't reach your eyes
Come home, come home now
You know it won't be long
To grin against this senseless moods?

"THE DIRT"

MIREL WAGNER 

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9i0hDNBdZM

Mama,
I know the well is dry
Sing me songs one more time
The wind is raging
And the birds won't fly
Nothing to eat,
And nowhere to hide

Mama,
It's gonna be alright
Tell me the stories one more time
Where the grass is green
And the water runs wild,
Where forever is forever
And noone has to die

'Cause you can't drink the dirt,
Even if you wanna
You can't eat the dirt
Even if you wanna
You can't breathe the dirt
Even if you wanna
But you'll be in the dirt,
You'll be the dirt

Mama,
I know I'm ready now
I'm not afraid
You don't need to cry
Just close my eyes,
And wake up into a new life
Mama,
There is no need to cry

'Cause you can't drink the dirt,
Even if you wanna
You can't eat the dirt
Even if you wanna
You can't breathe the dirt
Even if you wanna
But you'll be in the dirt,
You'll be the dirt

Pretty little face, pretty little eyes
Big fat belly, birthing out flies

Chewed up lips, milky milk teeth
Little bit of pain and a whole lot of meat

1, 2, 3, 4 what's underneath the floor?
1, 2, 3, 4 I can tell you more
A pretty little dream that locked your old scream
I never had to beg then come to me

I got a big, big heart and lots of love
I got a big, big heart and lots of love
I got a big, big heart and lots of love
I got a big, big heart and lots of love

Feel the wind and the speed
Can’t see the danger
Look mother no hands

 "WESTERING"

HISS GOLDEN MESSENGER 

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEIfBT5pEzk

 I'd say my life was full of light
I fed my child on the good land
We burned the oak, we burned the ash
But we did not burn the rowan
Two riders cam in single-file
Oh, a ragged flag did they bear
Saying whosoever the Lord designs
They can't deny the pilgrims share

Such a wild soul out tonight
Now do you heed how his voice does ring?
Such a wild soul out tonight
Though I don't know the song he sings

So I set off on the blue road
In the dawn, westering
Now three riders did it hold
Three different ways to Heaven
So if it rains, will you let it rain?
If it storms, will you let it blow?
And if I call, will you answer me?
Or will you leave me hollow?

Such a wild soul out tonight
Now do you heed how his voice does ring?
Such a wild soul out tonight
Though I don't know the song he sings

 "DANCING GIRL"

TERRY CALLIER

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyOAocNFJqM

 

I saw a dream last night
Bright like a falling star.
And the sources of light,
Seemed so near,
Yet so far.
I thought i was in flight,
Out where the planets are.
Moving between day and night.
Hear am I,
There you are.
Follow the Dancing Girl,
Vision and embrace.
Such an entrancing girl,
She moves with such rhythm and grace.
Who can she be?
Follow the Dancing Girl,
Go to the quiet place.
Here in the weary world,
Somewhere between time and space.
We shall be free.

Each of us is born alone.
Well welcome to the twilight zone.
You can leave with only what you bring.
Things we cannot see appear.
Singing songs we cannot hear.
An everything is surely everything.
Meanwhile in the ghettos dust and gloom.
Bird is blowin in his room.
All those noteswont take the pain away.
And you'll surely come to harm,
With that needle all up in your arm.
And dope will never turn the night to day.

Just a little further down the line.
Baby sister its these streets at night.
I say the wind blows chilly,
And the women need new shoes.

So just tell her,
Tell her what you wanna do.
Boogie, bop or boogalo?
I said tell her what you wanna do
Boogie, bop or boogaloo?
I said tell her, tell her
What you wanna do.
Boogie, bop or boogaloo?

 "LAZARUS MAN"

TERRY CALLIER

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mIJAi58j-pM

 I met a young man on the skeleton coast
He was out of his feet and pale as a ghost
I asked him his name - he said Lazarus, man
I've come to this country from a far away land
I can't quite remember the last time I was on shore
Coulda been twelve years - it coulda been more
But I've seen tribulation and it's troubled my mind
And I can't quite remember what I come her to find

It's wind on the ocean, rain on the land
Three drops of water and one grain of sand
I'll tell you the story as quick as I can
I've got nothing but time, I'm Lazarus Man

He said "I woke one mornin'and felt a little bit strange
By midafternoon there was fever and pain
And later that night with a few friends at my side
I went of to sleep and then I must have died
'Cause I was stumblin'and rising so I couldn't quite tell
Had one foot in glory and one foot in hell
On one side the gardenand on one sidethe flame
And I thought I heard somebody call out my name
Yeah, somebody was saying "Lazarus arise!"
So I sat up and opened my eyes
You know I wanted to dance but I didn't have room
I threw off the sheets and stepped out of the tomb"

It's wind on the ocean, rain on the land
Three drops of water and one grain of sand
I'll tell you the stroy as quick as I can
I've got nothing by time, I'm Lazarus Man

Now I've been from nazareth to high barbary
And I realize there's no rest for me
Ißve been out on the desert
Ißve been out on the deep
But since he bid me to rise
I ain't been to sleep

It's wind on the ocean, rain on the land
Three drops of water and one grain of sand
I'll tell you the stroy as quick as I can
I've got nothing by time, I'm Lazarus Man

Spin, spin, spin
Spin around, spin around

The harlequin dances in a costume of green
Spin around
But under his makeup his age can't be seen
Spin around
But where are you spinnin'
When will you know
That life is for livin'
That it isn't a show?

Spin, spin, spin
Spin around, spin around

You look out on the city from your penthouse so high
Spin around
But your pedestal's your prison and so is your high
Spin around
But where are you spinnin'
When will you know
That life is for livin'
That it isn't a show?

Spin, spin, spin
Spin around, spin around

Your pills are you conscience
They make ev'rything seem all right
Spin around
Take a white one go to sleep
Take a red one to stay up all night
To spin around
But where are you spinnin'
When will you know
That life is for livin'
That it isn't a show?
Spin, spin, spin
Spin around, spin around
Spin, spin, spin
Spin away, spin away
Spin, spin, spin
Spin around, spin around

 "I'M A DRIFTER"

TERRY CALLIER

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOl5SBp3Gk8

 [Intro]
As I walked down through the town just this mornin'
The clear blue sky was shining above
A young man come walkin', child, his head was all bended
Looks like a young man all wounded in love
I said, "Sit down beside me and tell me your story"
I said, "Sit down beside me and speak if you would"
"Well, I know a little talkin's gonna make you feel much better
"Now if anything earthly can help you, that should"

[Chorus]
He says, "I'm a drifter, and I'm a loner
"And I've seen every city and town
"Whoa, I pass by here and I'll die here
"And some strangers are gonna lower me down"

[Verse]
I stood in the shade of an old apple orchard
And watched them big trucks rolling by
Yeah, and I shared a grape soda
With a man from Dakota
And I've seen, I've seen me some junebugs in July

[Chorus]
Well now, I'm a drifter, yes and I'm a loner
You know I've seen every city and town
Well now I'm passin' by here, I reckon I'll die here
And some stranger's gonna lower me down

[Verse]
I played basketball through the hoop of a barrel
I struggled to learn how to swim
And though I once was a baby
Sometimes I get to thinkin' maybe
I only, I only pretend I ever was him

[Chorus]
Well now, I'm a drifter, yes, nothin' but a loner
Lord, I've seen every city and town
Well now I'm passin' by here, reckon I'll die here
And some stranger's gonna lower me down

[Verse]
I made love in your city to the poor and to the pretty
I thought myself kinda witty and smart
You know I've ended up lonely
Ain't got nothin' left but only this song
Yeah, I got a song, and a half, just half of a heart

[Chorus]
Well, I'm a drifter, yes, I'm just a loner
Lord, I've seen every city and town
You know, I pass by here, I reckon I'll die here
You know some stranger's gonna lower me down

[Verse]
You know, I envy the ships sailing out of your harbors
I've shared silent thoughts with your children and barbers
I've sung to the stars while the jukebox was playing
And I'll held back some tears
You know they come when I'm saying

[Chorus]
That I'm nothing but a drifter, a good for nothin' loner
Whoa, now I've seen every city and town
I'm passin' by here, reckon I'll die here
Well, some stranger's gonna lower me down
No, some stranger's gonna lower me down
Said some stranger's gonna lower me down

TERRY CALLIER

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9x68u4ao3Xs

 There was rain today
And crystal blue was hidden by a cloudy gray
A sudden shower come to chase the sun away
Occasional rain

Damn the weatherman
He seems to work against me any way he can
And he's been dealing tear-drops since the world began
And occasional pain

And blue you, don't believe I'm talking to you
The light is shining through you- still you will not see
Blue you- think I'm trying to undo you
When I only want to seek the Truth
And speak true

I can't tell you when
But someday soon we'll see the sun re-born again
And there'll be light without as well as light within
And occasional rain
 

"ARE YOU LEAVING FOR THE COUNTRY"

KAREN DALTON  

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pgh7rSickc8

 

Are you leaving for the country?
You say the city brings you down
Leave the iron cloud behind
And feel the circus moving on

Are you leaving for the country?
I know a little country town
Where dogs are sleeping in the cold
And flagpoles fallen down

High and fine
Sold the wheel and time
Spread their weight and let the planet spin
Do you feel like something's not real?
Let the spirit move you again
Are you leaving for the country?

Do you feel like something's not real?
Let the Spirit move you again
Are you leaving for the country?
You say the city brings you down
Leave the iron cloud behind
And feel the circus moving on

Mmm-mm, mm, mm-mm
Hmmm, mhhm, hmmm, mm
Mmm, mhhm, hmmm, mm

 

 "LORD FRANKLIN"

PENTANGLE

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysFKjWG_W54

 

It was homeward bound one night on the deep
Swinging in my hammock I fell asleep
I dreamed a dream and I thought it true
Concerning Franklin and his gallant crew

With one hundred seamen he sailed away
To the frozen ocean in the month of May
To seek a passage around the pole
Where we poor seamen do sometimes go

Through cruel hardships they mainly strove
Their ship on mountains of ice was drove
Only the Eskimo with his skin canoe
Was the only one that ever came through

In Baffin's Bay where the whale fish blow
The fate of Franklin no man may know
The fate of Franklin no tongue can tell
Lord Franklin along with his sailors do dwell

And now my burden it gives me pain
For my long lost Franklin I'd cross the main
Ten thousand pounds I would freely give
To say on earth that my Franklin do live

 "JESUS SHOT ME IN THE HEAD"

HISS GOLDEN MESSENGER

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGVSxgUhFoc

 Now I'm bound for Nazareth town
With all the mistakes I've made
Well God is good, and it's understood
But he moves in mysterious ways

He saw it all, my folderol
My rough and rowdy friends
In fact, I was getting wrecked in a Motel 6
When he showed up in the bath

So goodbye sweet Genevieve
And goodbye my Tulsa friends
Well hey everybody, did you hear the news
Jesus shot me in the head

Just as well, I was going to hell
I wasted everything
No more shooting pool
No getting drunk
I'm gone to see the king

So I'm on the road again
Yes, I'm on the road again
No more rolling down that wicked track
I'm going to see the king
But oh Lord, I need a hand
Oh Lord, I need a hand
Don't be late at those pearly gates
C'mon, and let me in

Spent some time in Jerusaleum
Where I tried my best to behave
And I told the town how they cut him down
And he rose up from the grave
Would you believe they laughed at me
No they would not leave me be
Next thing I know I was skipping stones
On the sea of Galilee

So I'm on the road again
Yes, I'm on the road again
No more rolling down that wicked track
I'm going to see the king
But oh Lord, I need a hand
Oh Lord, I need a hand
Don't be late at those pearly gates
C'mon, and let me in

The time will come when the chosen one
He calls on us in thanks
He loves us all, but the ones who fall
Hold a special place in his ranks
Least I hope this is how it goes
Since I'm just 'bout outta breath
So hey everybody, did you hear the news
Jesus shot me in the head

So I'm on the road again
Yes, I'm on the road again
No more rolling down that wicked track
I'm going to see the king
But oh Lord, I need a hand
Oh Lord, I need a hand
Don't be late at those pearly gates
C'mon, and let me in

So I'm on the road again
Yes, I'm on the road again
No more rolling down that wicked track
I'm going to see the king
But oh Lord, I need a hand
Oh Lord, I need a hand
Don't be late at those pearly gates
C'mon, and let me in

 "NO DEATH"

MIREL WAGNER

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYtvkoqTnSs

 

My baby has a swollen face
Long stiff limbs
Them eyes are black pits
Of a place where I've been
Her hair is long
Still smells like mud
She answered to my kiss
With a rotten tongue
No death can
Tear us apart
Her body is cold
Well its gonna get colder
But my love will ignite
What was left to smoulder
I move my hips
In her I am home
I'll keep on loving
Till the marrow dries from her bones
No death
Can tear us apart
All day
I stay by her side
But death has a claim
And a right to my bride
I shut the doors
Pull the curtains and hide
I heard something moving
Somewhere outside
No death can
Tear us apart
But death comes a sneaking in
Trough the keyholes
He's clever and he knows
What's beneath the floorboards
Death comes to feast
Like a greedy hungry beast
He wants it all
And here he crawls
And here he crawls
And here he crawls

 

 "A SIGHT TO BEHOLD"

DEVENDRA BANHART

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJMIBQOnfqY

 It's a sight to behold
When you got small words to mold
And you can make 'em your own

Still love it would be much better
Love it would be much better
I'm told

It's like golden corn
And i love its golden glow
It's the little head inside your little hole
And out spring some sparkling thoughts

Still love it would be much better
Love it would be much better
Love it would be much better
Love it would be much better

It's like finding home
In an old folk song
That you've never ever heard
Still you know every word
And for sure you can sing along

But love it would be much better
Love it would be much better
Love it would be much better
Love it would be much better
I know, I know

 Don't the flowers at your feet smell sweet
Well they sure smell sweet to me
And don't the moon way up high shine bright
Well it sure shines bright to me

And don't the water on your lips feel good
Well it sure feels good to me
And don't the lips on your lips feel good
Well they sure feel good to me...

 "KOREAN DOGWOOD"

DEVENDRA BANHART

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6IkfMlU2XQ

 Red oak
Sugar
And Korean Dogwood

Vibes turn
To rubbed rum
Lit by mission moonlight
Kangas on that hillside.

You are
My life
And you baffle me some
Like vanilla's maple.

Inca Cornflower
You're my baby's blue eyes

And when your gown dissolves in a prayer
You'll hear a sound
That rings true and fair.

Black King
Lightning
The dawn of Orange blossoms (and orange blossoms)
My friend
Keegan
Drawing endless love songs (endless love songs)

Calm breath
Sweet being
Show me what you're seeing (show me what you're seeing)

And though right and loud and proud
Every little word
It still ain't heard.

Strange prayers
Looming
Over all our brothers (over all our brothers).
Prison life served
but Navajo Gospel
is a rope thrown helpful.

But for sure
All that we've made
Will be swallowed by the earth
For its got no worth.

 I heard somebody say
That the war ended today
But everybody knows it's goin' still

Our motherlands and motherseas
Here's what we believe
It's simple
We don't want to kill

I heard somebody say
That the war ended today
But everybody knows its goin' still

Our motherlands and motherseas
Here's what we believe
It's simple
We don't want to kill

Oh, it's simple
We don't want to kill
Oh, it's simple
We don't want to kill
Oh, it's simple

 "NOW THAT I KNOW"

DEVENDRA BANHART

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRdipWxO2ig

 Now that I know
The way it goes
You gotta pay back every penny that you owe

Twelve years old
In your mama's clothes
Shut the blinds and lock up every door

And if you hear
Someone's comin near
Just close your eyes and make them disappear now

Years away
Finds me here today
On my own, always on my way now

So I send my friends
Gifts from where I've been
Something for the hand they're never there to lend

Better keep those eyes
Climbing paradise
And don't pretend you won't reach it in the end now

Dearest dear
I know you been here
Why'd you run tell me why'd you disappear now

That you're not
Here with me
Seems to be the only time that I can see you clearly

I may not know
How to treat or give you what you need
But I am a gentleman who says what he means now

And now I sing
Upon my knees
And praise the kindness of a gentle breeze

I see it swell
Like a story in me to tell
Told years away and past my baby dying

So you raise them up
To heaven always hell
they're unaware, share, give a hand to help son

Oh you give them away
But they'll come back to you someday
Wanna know why nobody was ever there to help them

And no it ain't fair
And if God forbid you care
It's enough to get you in a whole lotta trouble

Oh realize
It ain't wise to idealize
Or put your life in the hands of any struggle

Never renounce
Or ever claim to be
And never buy that freedom just ain't free now

Ella sang
Sifting in the sand
Like a hymn within to help us understand

Heaven awaits
We're making our stand
Glory bound and sparrow in our hand

 Tin soldiers and Nixon coming
We're finally on our own
This summer I hear the drumming
Four dead in Ohio

Gotta get down to it
Soldiers are cutting us down
Should have been done long ago
What if you knew her
And found her dead on the ground
How can you run when you know?

Gotta get down to it
Soldiers are cutting us down
Should have been done long ago
What if you knew her
And found her dead on the ground
How can you run when you know?

Tin soldiers and Nixon coming
We're finally on our own
This summer I hear the drumming
Four dead in Ohio

 It's getting to the point where I'm no fun anymore
I am sorry
Sometimes it hurts so badly I must cry out loud
I am lonely

I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are
You make it hard

Remember what we've said and done and felt about each other
Oh, babe have mercy
Don't let the past remind us of what we are not now
I am not dreaming

I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are
You make it hard

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Tearing yourself away from me now you are free
And I am crying
This does not mean I don't love you I do that's forever
Yes and for always

I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are
You make it hard

Something inside is telling me that I've got your secret
Are you still listening?
Fear is the lock and laughter the key to your heart
And I love you

I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are
You make it hard
And you make it hard
And you make it hard
And you make it hard

Friday evening
Sunday in the afternoon
What have you got to lose?

Tuesday morning
Please be gone I'm tired of you
What have you got to lose?

Can I tell it like it is? (Help me I'm sufferin')
Listen to me baby
It's my heart that's a sufferin' it's a dyin' (Help me I'm dyin')
And that's what I have to lose (To lose)

I've got an answer
I'm going to fly away
What have I got to lose?

Will you come see me
Thursdays and Saturdays?
What have you got to lose?

Chestnut-brown canary
Ruby-throated sparrow
Sing a song, don't be long
Thrill me to the marrow

Voices of the angels
Ring around the moonlight
Asking me said she so free
How can you catch the sparrow?

Lacy-lilting lyric
Losing-love lamenting
Change my life, make it right
Be my lady

Doo doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo

Doo doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo

¡Que linda! Me recuerda a Cuba
La reina de la Mar Caribe
Quiero sólo visitarla allí
Y que triste que no puedo.
¡Vaya!
O Va! O Va!

Doo doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo

Doo doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo

 "HELPLESSLY HOPING"

CROSBY, STILLS, NASH & YOUNG

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kyquqw6GeXk

 Helplessly hoping her harlequin hovers nearby
Awaiting a word
Gasping at glimpses of gentle true spirit he runs
Wishing he could fly
Only to trip at the sound of goodbye

Wordlessly watching he waits by the window and wonders
At the empty place inside
Heartlessly helping himself to her bad dreams he worries
Did he hear a good-bye?
Or even hello?

They are one person
They are two alone
They are three together
They are for each other

Stand by the stairway you'll see something certain to tell you
Confusion has its cost
Love isn't lying it's loose in a lady who lingers
Saying she is lost
And choking on hello

They are one person
They are two alone
They are three together
They are for each other

 "SOMETHING HAPPENED 

TO ME YESTERDAY"

THE ROLLING STONES

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4YObSLe8UI

 Something happened to me yesterday
Something, I can't speak of right away
Something happened to me, something, oh, so groovy
Something happened to me yesterday

He don't know if it's right or wrong
Maybe he should tell someone
He's not sure just what it was
Or if it's against the law, something

Something very strange I hear you say
You're talking in a most peculiar way
But something really threw me, something, oh, so groovy
Something happened to me yesterday
(Yesterday)

He don't know just where it's gone
He don't really care at all
No one's sure just what it was
Or the meaning and the cause, something

What kinda joint is this?
Take your partners

He don't know if it's right or wrong
Maybe he should tell someone
He's not sure just what it was
Or if it's against the law, something

Someone says there's something more to pay
For sins that you committed yesterday
It's really rather drippy but something, oh, so trippy
Something happened to me yesterday

Right, he don't know just where it's gone
He don't really care at all
No one's sure just what it was
Or the meaning and the cause, something

Someone's singing loud across the bay
Sittin' on a mat about to pray
Isn't half as loony as something, oh, so groovy
Something happened to me yesterday

Right, he don't know if it's right or wrong
Maybe he should tell someone
He's not sure just what it was
Or if it's against the law, something

Well, thank you very much and now I think it's time for us all to go
So from all of us to all of you not forgetting the boys in the band
And our producer, Reg Thorpe, we'd like to say "God Bless"
So, if you're out tonight, don't forget, if you're on your bike, wear white
Evening, all

 Well she's very wealthy it's true
So in that, she is one up on you
She's dressed all in red, white and blue
And she always knows more than you do

She's so affected
Cool, calm, collected

She knows who to smile to today
She has just been brought up in that way
She knows all the right games to play
And she always just knows what to say

She's well-respected
Cool, calm, collected

She's so affected
Cool, calm, collected

In public the strain's hard to bear
She exudes such a confident air
But behind she is not without care
But she sweeps it right under her hair

She's well-respected
Cool, calm, collected

She seems to glow brilliantly white
And her hair seems to shine in the night
With her feet unbelievably light
And her teeth ready, sharpened to bite

She's so respected
Cool, calm, collected

 "BACK STREET GIRL"

THE ROLLING STONES

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N--7J-pYoi4

 I don't want you to be high
I don't want you to be down
Don't want to tell you no lie
Just want you to be around
Please come right up to my ears
You will be able to hear what I say
Don't want you out in my world
Just you be my backstreet girl

Please don't be part of my life
Please keep yourself to yourself
Please don't you bother my wife
That way you won't get no help
Don't try to ride on my horse
You're rather common and coarse anyway
Don't want you out in my world
Just you be my backstreet girl

Please don't you call me at home
Please don't come knocking at night
Please never ring on the phone
Your manners are never quite right
Please take the favors I grant
Curtsy and look nonchalant, just for me
Don't want you part of my world
Just you be my backstreet girl

 "YOU CAN'T ALWAYS GET 

WHAT YOU WANT"

THE ROLLING STONES

 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"

Sing it to me, honey

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

Oh baby, yeah

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
Well no
You can't always get what you want
I tell you, baby
You can't always get what you want
No
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You get what you need

Oh, yeah, woo

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

Sing it

You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want, ooh yeah, child
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

Ah yeah
Ah yeah, woo!

Ah, you can't always get what you want
(No no, baby)
You can't always get what you want
(You can't now now)
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometime you just might find
You just might find
That you get what you need

Ah yeah!
Ah yeah! Do that
