You Never Get What You Want
Patty Griffin Song Lyrics
Stopped to take a look and stuck your finger in I bit one off and you came back again and again Then the nice people let me out one day And you told me how to act and What to say But you never get what you wanted that way You never get what you want You never get what you want and I don't think it's my fault You never get what you want, do you baby? Everything's always such a mystery Including your sad little history Do you still think someone should Take responsibility and pay Ever since I've know you you've walked that walk You've broken all the records Now you've broken all the clocks And everytime it breaks my heart to hear you talk this way You never get what you want You never get what you want and I don't think it's my fault You never get what you want, do you baby? Everybody's been sad, everybody's been tragic Whole lot of hard times, whole little bit of magic These bitter bitter fruits and these endless hallways They're killing us baby We gotta walk away, walk away You never get what you want You never get what you want You spend your whole time thinkin 'bout why I'm so deranged Well honey, why don't you think about that for a change? You never get what you want You never get what you want Your whole damn life You never get what you want Not your whole damn life You never get what you want And I don't think it's my fault You never get what you want Do you baby |
