You Can't Get Away From It Lyrics


Johnnie Taylor You Can't Get Away From It




[Verse 1]
You can't get away from it
No matter how hard you try
'Cause if you really love someone
You can never say goodbye

[Pre-Chorus]
Now they can walk on you
Lie about you
Mistreat you and then
Even doubt you

[Chorus]
But with all of these things

So high you can't get over it, and then
So low you can't go under it

[Verse 2]

So low you can't go under it, yeah

[Verse 1]
Oh, you can't get away from it
No matter how hard you try
'Cause if you really really really really really really love someone
Now you can never say goodbye

[Pre-Chorus]
Now they can walk on you
Lie about you
Mistreat you
Even doubt you

[Chorus]
But with all of these things
You know that there'll be love
So high you can't get over it, I know, and
So low you can't go under it, I know

[Outro]
You can't get away from it
I got to the river
I started to drown
Thought about my baby
I turned around
I've been to the mountain
Forget my trouble
Thought about my baby
I come back on the double
