Foreigner - I'll Get Even With You Lyrics






You gave it to me real low
You gave me such a low blow
You caught me with my guard down
You floored me in the first round

You gave it to me real low
You gave me such a low blow
You hit me on the blind side
You took me for a big ride

But I won't let it get to me
I couldn't go through all that
No, I won't let it get to me
I'll try and hold it all back

And get even with you
I'll get even with you
Yeah, I'll get even with you
You'll get what's comin' to you

You gave it to me real low
You give me such a low blow
You kick a man when he's down
You kick him when he's on the ground, yeah, yeah

You gave it to me real low
You give me such a low blow
You got me in a tailspin
You really tried to do me in

But I won't let it get to me
I couldn't go through all that
No, I won't let it get to me
I'll try and hold it all back

But I'll get even with you
I'll get even with you
Hey, I'll get even with you
You'll get what's comin' to you

I'll get even with you, I'll get even with you, wait 'n' see
I'll get even with you, I'll get even with you
I'll get even with you, I'll get even with you
I'll get even with you, I'll get even with you
You'll get what's comin' to you

    ~I remember this song~had my second apartment in 1978 and had a 1977 Cutlass Oldsmobile Brougham with a kick ass stereo in it with a cassette deck~bought this album when it came out in 1979~great song~

  6. J.... 1....

    I always thought that this was the best song on Head Games, This album is just awesome. Foreigners best.

  7. g.... 4....

    Saw them couple years ago they were awesome. I think new singer

  8. J.... R....

    This song has actually “inspired” me more than a few times throughout life.
    You gotta do what ya gotta do.....

  10. 0.... ....

    Foreigner is great.

  11. c.... ....

    The same clear sound and clarity of this band never changes..one of my alltime fav groups..

  16. S.... C....

    Still getting even in 2018

  17. M.... N....

    This is by far the best FOREIGNER song. It hits home, because I am such a passive-aggressive fuck when I wanna be..:)

  18. G.... Q....

    Forienor,,after listening to there old stuff, got to say ,,they are the shittttt hands down !!!!

  19. M.... ....

    This song is fantastic!!

  20. T.... R....

    GREAT TRACK [ THEIR BEST

  21. G.... C....

    Great song,i agree with all comments most underrated album,every song a winner.My band does 3 Foreigner songs,Hotblooded,Louanne and this one.

    G.... C....

    Graham Cull Louanne is one of my favorites!

  22. K.... U....

    How this album got shunned by the masses is beyond me..every song friggen rocks on it!!!

    K.... U....

    Kris Untch it was five times platinum that's not being shunned. Rich number five on billboard top 200 the album did really well dirty white boy was a major hit

    K.... U....

    Produced by Roy Thomas Baker RTB

    K.... U....

    She was sitting on a lot of germs, gross

    K.... U....

    Shunned? "Head Games" sold 5 million in the USA.

    K.... U....

    I got this album for Christmas at work on a gift ex-change. Another year I got Queen News of the World!!!

  23. M.... C....

    I love this song! I'm really surprised it wasn't a hit. I guess nearly every Foreigner song had the potential to be a hit.

    M.... C....

    Stupidly, they never released it as a single. Nowadays songs are automatically taken from recordings and get to the top 100.

    M.... C....

    Their first 8 singles hit the top twenty. First group to do that since The Beatles.

    M.... C....

    Michael Cosyn Group i dont think they had a regular fillin song off their first 4 albums..they were all good

  24. P.... B....

    hey my father in law was stationed for a while at white sands
    , Ajax missiles a long time ago.

  25. 2.... ....

    one of my first album's

  26. E.... B....

    Bought this album at the PX in 1979 when I was in the Army stationed at White Sands Missile Range, NM
    Brought back memories.....

  27. M.... ....

    KSHE Birthday party #12 1979  St. Louis Checker Dome,  Foreigner  With opening band Gamma. WooHoo !

  29. s.... ....

    its not greener on the other side,grass is grass,all those men and want to come back,i think not,luck to all idiots-------lou knows

  30. D.... K....

    Underrated song with an underrated singer. Lou Graham was an awesome singer

    D.... K....

    Lou Graham (Gramatacko) I believe it spelled like that his given name he was great and definitely that song was underated and my faveorite on that album loved it sawvforeigner at Cal jam 2

    D.... K....

    Mandy pinheiro It's spelled Grammatico :)

    D.... K....

    His name is Louis Andrew Grammatico ( Lou Gramm).
    The Original Voice and soul of Foreigner.

    No need to get "even with you" Just let karma handle it! Found out my ex was cheating on me. All I did was kick her out of my house. That was when karma kicked in for her. Her new "man" started beating her. I hate men who beat women, but in this case, well......

    s.... ....

    t.... ....

    And now you have a '71 orange and black Ruster?

    t.... ....

    tryithere was I talking to you assclown?

  37. d.... ....

    Yeah, I haven't heard this in 30 years...my 8 tracks got stolen, and I don't think I could afford to relace this tape at the time. I loved Foreigner....also reminds me of crusin in my '76 Duster my first year of college, and also going to the clubs....definitely a fun time for me.

  38. s.... ....

    still the best song for a breakup.

  39. A.... ....
