Lang, Jonny - Get What You Give Lyrics






Father, Father speaking out
Wants to tell you what it's all about
But you don't listen, you don't care
No one tells you what to do around here

Got your girl, and it's all good
You're so tired of being misunderstood
You'd love to get him off your back
You just want him to cut you some slack
You said "He don't know where I'm at", yeah

Get what you give, don't you know, don't you know
You get what you give
That's right, that's right
That's how it is, don't you know, don't you know
You get what you give

Lost the key that locks your room
And momma's gonna be home soon
Guess this means you've got to lie
You ain't got no other alibi

Get what you give, don't you know, don't you know
You get what you give
That's right, that's right
That's how it is, don't you know, don't you know
You get what you give
(What you give is, what you get)

Tell your daddy you'll be fine
Not to worry you'll get by
Grow your hair and change your name
Pack your bags and runaway

Get what you give, don't you know, don't you know
You get what you give
That's right, that's right
That's how it is, don't you know, don't you know
You get what you give

Get what you give, don't you know, don't you know
You get what you give
That's right, that's right
That's how it is, don't you know, don't you know
You get what you give

  15. J.... E....

    Make that sucker SCREAM boyo! Hell yeah!

  16. D.... T....

    Can you relate to the music? That's all that really matters. I have seen Jonny Lang live many times and he delivers. Heart felt. I don't compare him to anyone. Just love what I hear.

  17. J.... B....

    Once again proving what a fantastic live performer he is!!!!

  18. L.... M....

    I agree ! But Mayer's got Katy Perry ;) :P

  19. S.... H....

    I've always thought they Jonny & Marc have a similar vibe & soulfulness.

  20. X.... ....

    Damn. Thought this was a New Radicals cover. fooled me.

  21. E.... ....

    I agree you should also check out Marc Broussard he is amazing as well

  22. L.... ....

    Check out Johnny's new signature pedal from Blendtec! watch?v=HXIXCum5bIc&feature=youtube_gdata_player

  23. R.... ....

    LOVE!!!! <3
    Is the studio version anywhere on YouTube?

  24. d.... ....

    No, tashman8, Gavin Degraw has a similar vocal sound to Jonny lang ;)

  25. U.... ....

    me 2, but its a non-compare. Mayer is bluesy Pop/Rock/Adult. very well done, very polished. Lang is a bluesman period. Raw & dirty blues. I think Mayer is a more technical instrumentalist & Lang is the better vocalist. Both have beyond comprehension craftmanship and both at the top of my fav. list.

  26. J.... ....

    I'm hooked on him - awesome!!

  27. A.... C....

    Jonny's music is AMAZING! What an awesome guitarist and vocalist! Any music like this makes me want to smile, walk down the street with a little pep in my step, and just have a positive outlook in general. So happy to have music like this in my life. Are you?? :-)

  28. G.... W....

    @NSoncrant24 I like your attitude ...good music is good music!! It's not a competition, it's harmony!!

  29. C.... H....

    @leatherwings007 Not in this one - those are real-deal Fender WRHB's and a Duncan P90 in the middle. He has since swapped out that same set up in his Blackburst and the Redbust CS thinlines to the Lawrences with the Duncan in the middle, still. This is his first Fender CS thinling...hasn't been seen out in many many years, so not sure if he swapped the p'ups in this one or not.

  30. j.... ....

    @lapwiz apparently, the pickups are a Wilde Bill Lawrence L500L in the neck, an L500XL in the bridge, and a Seymour Duncan P90 in the middle

  31. R.... ....

    Interesting pups on that thinline tele. two shiny humbs on the bridge and neck and a single coil in the middle position. I wonder what those are.

  32. R.... ....

    It's so good it get's stuck in the brain, and is so sweet to play. BADASS BLUESROCKABILLYJAZZY THEN SOME!

  33. R.... ....

    @NSoncrant24 Loius Armstrong summed it up: "If it sounds good, It is good"!

  34. R.... ....

    That LP intro is totally bad-ass!

  35. T.... ....

    hey i played guitar with that guy at the beginning.

  36. w.... ....

    Looks like a little Albert Collins inspired.Think Maybe?

  37. T.... ....

    This guy is pretty damn badass

  38. M.... T....

    His passion and talent together create such amazing music... absolutely adore him and have since he first started out.

  39. j.... ....

    wooo!! this IS good isn't it!!!!!

  40. p.... ....

    Can't wait to see him live tomorrow night in Fredericton.
    He's an AMAZING singer.

  41. J.... P....

    jonny is awesome! yay!

  42. J.... M....

    Johnny never age's he always looks ssoooooo young

  43. e.... ....

    i wish I had a voice as sick as his... it's wicked. just awesome.. and his music is way good too

  44. M.... D....

    This guy has to be the best modern blues player around right now....he's been playing three years my senior and I'm amazed that he's this goddamn good!

  45. J.... ....

    @OceanPeace3 I know I found out he was married last March or April, but I can dream can't I!!!!!!!~

  46. J.... ....

    Humble and very hot let alone talented uncompared. What a package! Ill take it!

  47. K.... ....

    Two words, marry me (:

  48. p.... ....

    I <3 THIS SONG

  49. R.... ....

    Un-frickin-believable! shivers shivers and more shivers.

  50. C.... T....

    Agree with rentapec... the les paul tone rocks...awesome.

  51. 6.... ....

    love the Scat he's doin,,

  52. O.... T....

    the tone that les paul in the intro is perfect...... its THE tone.

    O.... T....

    Ollie Townsend it's the great Paul Diethelm on rhythm guitar. That looks like his 1958 reissue LP. The tone on the intro is killer.

  53. N.... S....

    I like both Mayer and Jonny, I also like Clapton and Jimi why does it always have to be a competition with you people. It is music, and good music is good music..period.

  54. P.... H....

    @mntoor And the guy still says he's "just a singer"! Can you believe it?

  55. p.... ....

    love jonny lang!! his guitar playing and singing is awesome!!!! its especially hard to do both at the same time!!!!

  56. p.... ....

    love jonny lang!! his guitar playing and singing is awesome!!!! its especially hard to do both at the same time!!!!

  57. G.... B....

    @Master6String well said my man, well said

  58. G.... V....

    why do you always compare musicians??? it's music, not a competition... :X

  59. N.... F....

    Give it up for Paul Diethelm! WOO!

  60. L.... B....

    @OceanPeace3 Exactly. You aren't God. And yet you felt it okay to judge his character and personality - isn't that exactly what someone's soul is? Or at least part of it? I was pretty certain that you meant musical soul, and very well aware of the roots of the genre. I was merely being precise.

  61. L.... B....

    @OceanPeace3 I'm a huge fan of Jonny, and a fan of Mayer as well, but I don't see how you are in a position to judge their character, personality or soul (unless you were talking the musical definition of soul). While Jonny certainly seems to be a good person and Mayer has done some pretty douchy things, I would hesitate to judge someone I don't actually know...

  62. R.... W....

    0 thumbs down. Jonny Lang is that good. Fact.

  63. T.... ....

    @SuperJamtown John Mayer is a whole lot of nothing on the guitar? Shit, you may want to open your ears a little more to his music before saying something foolish like that. Him and Jonny are completely different, and yes, Jonny is incredibly soulful with his playing. But if take John Mayer to be the old 'pop star' he started his career with, listen a little more because you are sadly mistaken.

  64. D.... A....

    Want a bad a** Jonny Lang the world should wake up and hear your GREATNESS

  65. e.... i....

    Your comparing apples to oranges ... Jonny far supercedes John's talent !

  66. k.... ....

    @Featherpen0517 im sorry but i must respectfully and completely disagree! the topic of him selling out is a complete other discussion but nothing about john mayer being recognized as a blues musician diminishes anything the greats have done. if you look at his work with his trio is all blues grove. infact he is the closest thing to bringing blues mainstream since SRV. he is versatile and to say he sold out is unfair.

  67. M.... M....

    I completely believe that John Mayer's recognized inclusion into "blues" does indeed diminish the greatness of other players before him. He chose to sell out instead of pursuing greatness in jazz so that disqualifies him, and as to his ability, we may never know if he was technically great enough to stand amongst the greats, because he does not play blues. Maybe he'll surprise us like Hendrix did with a blues album that was freaking amazing.

  68. s.... ....

    @Master6String WTF. John Mayer is the lowest form of blues and the highest form of douchebaggery. It's a shame I don't this Jonny Lang guy on the radio.

  69. T.... ....

    @CaptainSpry Haha Stereotypes are flat out wrong. I like the comment.

  70. T.... ....

    He always kills it live! Some people can produce in a studio with their electronics, but Jonny always brings it live! A great man and a great musician!

  71. D.... M....

    @Master6String
    Couldn't agree more!

  72. J.... ....

    @15000volts That's a giant heat sink, like you find on PCB's to help them run cooler. This one keeps his guitar from bursting into flames. ;-)

  73. L.... ....

    Holy crap! This sounds better than the studio version, he is insanely good!

  74. H.... L....

    what's that grey thing behind the bridge?

  75. f.... ....

    jonny is simply amazing...I love this guy.He's a great guitar player and has an amazing voice

  76. D.... L....

    Such a big voice for such a little guy!

  77. T.... B....

    lol...As Clapton and Gilmour said a few times already,,,,hes a prodigy since his 16...Amazing!

  78. s.... ....

    @dwbryant3 i know right? but he totally went gospel and shit, and his new music is not nearly as rockin'.

  79. T.... ....

    Never heard so much soul coming out of white boy!!

  80. s.... ....

    @dwbryant3 the politics of music.they push that jonas bros britney crap on you.they control radio stations etc.payola alan freed 1950's it all started.

  81. K.... D....

    @Master6String Well put, it is quite annoying to read petty comments based on emotional distortions as to the abilities of various artists. Music is not a contest, it's art, and any who can rise above through fan devotion, whether large or small in scale, must have something to offer in that regard.

  82. P.... ....

    My goodNess!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  83. a.... ....

    @2beloved2009
    yeah it's blues rock. and I didn't know Lang have been in the Blues for ever since.

  84. H.... N....

    JOHN MAYER HAS NOTHING ON JONNY LANG...jonny is already blues and always has been if you haven't noticed. Jonny Lang is original... john mayer can keep his wack mainstream music.

  85. a.... ....

    I Think he should turn like John Mayer
    in to the blueeees

  86. p.... ....

    @mntoor yeah totally agree, if god hear him play he must smile and think: holy shit this one of my child´s can play :-)

  87. T.... ....

    lucky bastard! :D

  88. K.... D....

    i've seen him in concert SEVEN times!

  89. b.... ....

    What year is this performance from? (It's f-in' awesome!)

  90. f.... ....

    oh man,I want that telecaster!! awesome!

  91. J.... S....

    DAMN THAT SOLO IS AWESOMMMMEEE :O

  92. J.... S....

    damn dude this is soo awesome :O

    J.... S....

    Brillant song! 2019/20 x

  93. T.... ....

    great! but the solo was a bit over the edge for my taste..

  94. M.... ....

    Mayer is a "hack"? Boy, that's a pretty moronic thing to say. While it's true that Mayer is huge commercial success, that same success doesn't negate the fact that he's one hellofa song writer and great guitar player ta boot. His success doesn't minimize Lang's contributions to the genre either. Both men are hugely talented, passionate individuals.

  95. d.... ....

    I love the comment :) though i don't agree.. hehe...

  96. k.... g....

    jonny is so awesome.................wow

  97. V.... R....

    Phil Keaggey once said Johnny Lang Was the best guitarist in the world

  98. M.... ....

    John is a more technical player in my opinion. I think Jonny just plays what sounds good to him, he doesn't know what the heck he's playing, haha. I prefer Jonny's voice over John's. They both have different styles, so it's hard to compare.
