Out ta Get Me (1986 Sound City Session) lyrics

[Verse 1]

Been hidin' out an' layin' low
It's nothin' new ta' me
Well, you can always find a place to go
If you can keep your sanity
They break down the doors
An' they rape my rights, but
They won't touch me
They scream and yell
And fight all night, but
You can't tell me
I lose my head
I close my eyes, but
They won't touch me
I got somethin' I been buildin' up inside
I'm already gone

[Chorus]

They're out ta' get me
They won't catch me
'Cause I'm innocent
They won't break me

[Verse 2]
Sometimes it's easy to forget where you're goin'
Sometimes it's harder to leave
An' every time you think you know just what you're doin'
That's when your troubles exceed
They push me in a corner
Just to get me to fight, but
They won't touch me
They preach and yell and fight all night, but
You can't tell me
I lose my head
I close my eyes
They won't touch me
I got somethin' I been buildin' up inside
For so f*ckin' long

[Chorus]

They're out ta' get me
They won't catch me
'Cause I'm innocent, tah
They won't break me

[Refrain]

No
No, no
Uh-oh
Nuh-uh-oh
Oh, no
Ahhhhhooow ...
[Verse 3]

Some people got a chip on their shoulder
An' some would say it was me
But I didn't buy that fifth a'whiskey that you gave me
So, I'd be quick to disagree

[Chorus]

They're out to get me
They won't catch me
Cause I'm innocent
They won't break me

[Outro]

They're out to get me
You better believe
They won't catch me
Ah, listen to me
I'm f*ckin' innocent
So, you can suck me

Take that one ta' heart
