Lyrics
That's How They Get You
By Dal Sanders & Lou Simmons
© 1985 Cricket Hollow Music BMI
Uptempo Rock & Roll with a Jazzy Feel
1.First they give you a little for free--Just a sample to try
Then the next time around--They tell you the price
Still you've got your needs--But the price is so high
They bleed you and they suck you till you're this side of dry.
CHORUS
And thet's how they get you
That's how they get you now.
That's how they get you.
That's how they make you their boy.
2.Well the music is loud--And the air is so thin.
They're all out tonight--To score once again.
They sound so sincere--But their interest is skin
Well it's talk and it's drink till you're this side of dry.
CHORUS
And thet's how they get you
That's how they get you now.
That's how they get you.
That's how they make you their boy.
3.Well the windows are down--and the music, it cooks.
We're learning the things--you don't learn in books.
This songs like the ocean--it's all full of hooks.
We'll riff you and we'll beat you till you give us a try.
CHORUS
And thet's how we get you
That's how we get you now.
That's how we get you.
That's how we make you their boy.
And thet's how they get you
That's how they get you now.
That's how they get you.
That's how they make you their boy.
