Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes – Snatchin' It Back lyrics

(G. Jackson/C. Carter)

I try to get your love
But you keep on snatchin' it back
Tell me, tell me, tell me baby
How can I get your love
If you keep on snatchin' it back?
Oh, yeah
Have to expect not to get it
If you keep on doing like that

You want me, baby
And I want you
But you're afraid to come up to my room
I get your love in the palm of my hand
But you change on me baby
And snatch it back again

How can I get your love
If you keep on snatchin' it back?
I got to know, won't you tell me baby
I wonder how can I get your love
If you keep on snatchin' it back?
I do expect this, I'll never get it back
If you keep on doing like that

Some other lover
Before my time
Took your love
And left you behind
Now you afraid, baby
That I'll use you too
I won't do nothing darling
I won't, it's the truth
Tell me, tell me

How can I get your love
If you keep on snatchin' it back?

Some other lover
Before my time
Took your love
And left you behind
Now you afraid, baby
That I'll use you too
I won't do nothing darling
I won't, it's the truth
Now woman

How can I get your love?
Tell the truth baby
How can I get all of your love?
Come on darling
Tell me, how can I get your love?
How can I get your love?

How can I get your love
If you keep on snatchin' it back?
