ATF: Wants and Needs

This weekly series will include as many of my all-time favorite tunes as I can get my grubby little hands on (so to speak).  Now, each one included in each edition will have some connection with the other—albeit only as a figment of my imagination, but they will not be numbered.  For I just cannot bring myself to rate some higher than others.  So, this will not be a countdown, but if you are enjoying them as much as I do, it won’t matter.  Besides, with no countdown, this could go on forever and ever!  Oh, and despite the fact that there is absolutely no way that your musical tastes can be as exquisite as mine, I welcome any suggestions that you might dare to make.  I am, after all, quite magnanimous by nature.

Wanted Dead or Alive

Bon Jovi

It's all the same

Only the names will change

Every day

It seems we're wastin’ away

Another place

Where the faces are so cold

I'd drive all night

Just to get back home

I'm a cowboy

On a steel horse I ride

I'm wanted

Dead or alive

Wanted

Dead or alive

Sometimes I sleep

Sometimes it's not for days

And the people I meet

Always go their separate ways

Sometimes you tell the day

By the bottle that you drink

And times when you're alone

All you do is think

I'm a cowboy

On a steel horse I ride

I'm wanted

Wanted

Dead or alive

Wanted

Wanted

Dead or alive

Oh

I ride

Yeah

I'm a cowboy

On a steel horse I ride

I'm wanted

Wanted

Dead or alive

I walk these streets

A loaded six string on my back

I play for keeps

‘Cause I might not make it back

I’ve been everywhere

Oh yeah

And I'm standin’ tall

I've seen a million faces

And I've rocked them all

Because I'm a cowboy

On a steel horse I ride

I'm wanted

Wanted

Dead or alive

You Can’t Always Get What You Want

The Rolling Stones

I saw her today t 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 sometimes

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

Singin’

We're gonna vent our frustration

If we don't

We're gonna blow

A 50-amp fuse

Sing it to me

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

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

Oh yes

You get what you need

Yeah

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

Yeah

You can't always get what you want

Eew yeah

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 yes

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

Oh yes
