Gary Puckett & The Union Gap - Don't Give In To Him Lyrics






It starts out with a kiss
Even though you're only friends
Now there's nothing wrong with this
But this is where his act begins

He'll hold you and tell you that's what love is for
Oh, but don't give in to him (don't give in to him)
No, don't give in to him (ah)
'Cause he will only ask for more

You don't want to lose him
So you let him have his way
You don't dare refuse him
Because you know the price you'll pay

He's bragging that he's never lost before
So don't give in to him (don't give in to him)
No, no, don't give in to him (ah)
'Cause he will only ask for more

Baby, don't give in to him (don't give in to him)
No, no, don't give in to him (ah)
'Cause I'm the one who loves you more

No, no, don't give in to him (don't give in to him)
Please don't give in

    One of the best male voices of the 60's. This is one of my favorites that I don't hear too often.

  8. D.... C....

    God I love this man and his song, his voive. I was only about 15-16 yrs.old then and didn't Gary Puckett and The Union Gap come to our Elmwood Park Il High School in 1968. They Played In Our School Gymnasium. They were the best ever of the 60's! I will never forget them, ever! Thank you for your wonderful songs and mysic. Gary Puckett your an absolute doll!

  10. F.... C....

    This is great.My favorite by The Union Gap is the beautiful OVER YOU. This Girl Is A Woman Now is excellent too!

    Got all 4 of their albums. This one had "This Girl Is a Woman Now" as well as "Don't Give In to Him". Most of their songs were original & very good.

  16. M.... ....

    Probably my favorite Gary Puckett and the Union Gap song...love you guys!!!!!

  17. S.... H....

    Gary Puckett (and the Union Gap) had so many outstanding hits in such a short time, it's almost impossible to pick just one favorite!  This definitely is one of them, if not the best!

  18. J.... C....

    another great song with a good story

  19. K.... S....

    I agree , it is rarely played on oldies radio. Great song.

  20. L.... H....

    A voice that could be heard clear across San Diego Bay. Great music I miss so much.

  21. N.... ....

    "Don't give in to him,'Cause he'll will only ask for more'... Does that make him a bad guy???

  22. L.... B....

    The beautiful sound of the great, incomparable Gary Puckett!

  24. G.... L....

    BEAUTIFUL SONG I LOVE IT!!!

  25. D.... ....

    Seems to end sooner than I recall on the album.

    D.... ....

    They cut it off too soon here, by at least 20 seconds.

  26. C.... C....

    FANTASTIC

  27. C.... C....

    FANTASTIC

  28. m.... ....

    aahhh yes , i remember those teenage years of being pressured (temptation) lol

  29. t.... ....

    Hey Mike. How ya been? I just came across this oldie and can remember well the times we sat around the jukeboxes in the area and shoved handfuls of change into the Rock-Olas and Seeburgs and Wurlitzers so we could hear greats like this over and over and over. Thanks for a great upload...again. :)

  30. M.... "....

    @Desiree50 ---Got your "drift".......sadly, I did my share of "pressuring" as a teenager. Lol.

  31. T.... K....

    @StanBennet Ditto! I met him three times. He is kool. After a concert he intermingles with the crowds. Just saw him last January / February in fact.

  32. S.... ....

    Ever get the chance to meet Gary Puckett, do so. He's one of the finest people on the planet. He was able to put up with me lol!

  33. F.... ....

    Pure gold 1960's music, laced with copious quantities of sexual overtones which were the hallmark of many of the Gary Puckett and the Union Gap's hit songs.(Lady Willpower, Young Girl, Woman Woman, Don't Give in to Him, This Girl is a Woman Now immediately come to mind.) Thanks Gary for making my adolescent years back then so vibrant...........

  34. b.... ....

    Music Mike in the house again! Nice track!

  35. p.... ....

    A fine song, Mike, which probably doesn't get too much air time because no one today wants to admit the message in the song is a good one...

  36. a.... b....

    Saw him in '86 in concert and he still had that beautiful voice then. Great sounding video. thanks

  37. t.... ....

    Beautiful, Mike....thank you.............
    John

  38. j.... ....

    Just subscribed. Great collection of music! Forgot about this little gem from this group. TERRIFIC melody! 2 thumbs up!

  39. r.... ....

    This is the only one of their hit singles that I liked. Recently, I saw a greatest hits type of CD for the group that didn't even contain this song but had others that weren't hits! The only "excuse" I can think of is that this one came later than the others, and the CD I saw may have been a straight reissue of a vinyl edition that was originally released before this one was a hit. Still, they should have considered making it a bonus cut.

    r.... ....

    I don't understand why they wouldn't include this song. I'm sure all greatest hits albums from them came after this song was released. They only had 6 big hits & this was 1 of them. It is frustrating to me when I'm looking for a greatest hits album from an artist & they don't include key hits that I love.
