Baby You Know Lyrics by John Cale

Sabotage/Live

1979

[Verse 1]
You've got it coming, babe, you know you do
Something in the back of my mind reminds me of you
Talking to yourself alone at night
Scheming on your friends in the midnight
Scheming on your friends for what not, baby you know
[Verse 2]
Some things go wrong and some things go right
The last thing that I needed was for you to die in a fight
When you turned your back and walked away
You could have stopped me then but you wanted to wait
Baby, took your time and that's how, baby I know
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Easy come and easy go
There's much more to get by then what she shows
When you're talking to me through the wall again
Talking to me through the wall again
Talking to me through the wall now, baby you know
[Outro]
The more you get the more you want (Baby, you know)
The more you get the more you want (Baby, you know)
The more you get the more you want (Baby, you know)
The more you get the more you want (Baby, you know)
