Kenny Chesney - You Don't Get To (Audio)

LYRICS:

I can’t say that you don’t hurt me anymore
I haven't changed enough to make me think I’m what you're looking for
And I can’t be the fix for what you're going through
Yeah maybe I'm not the same me, but you're still the same you

So you don’t get to know what I do with my time
You don’t get to say you ain’t doing alright
You don’t get to come around saying that you want me now
You don’t get to show up with that look in your eyes
You don’t get to think that you can take it all back
You don’t get to miss what you said we never had
I don’t have to understand, you don’t get to give a damn
After all you put me through no, you don’t get to
You don’t, you don’t, you don’t
You don’t get to

Did you come back ‘cause I didn't break enough
Did you hear that I was happy, you just had to mess it up
Or is it just some phase you’re always going through
To want what you can’t have and leave it when you do

So you don’t get to know what I do with my time
You don’t get to say you ain’t doing alright
You don’t get to come around saying that you want me now
You don’t get to show up with that look in your eyes
You don’t get to think that you can take it all back
You don’t get to miss what you said we never had
I don’t have to understand, you don’t get to give a damn
After all you put me through no, you don’t get to
You don’t, you don’t, you don’t
You don’t get to

You don’t get to kiss me and make it all better
You don’t get to lay it all out in a letter
Blame it on something, break me like it’s nothing
Just to love me back together
You don’t get to show up with your hair hanging down
Move a little closer like you’re moving right now
I don’t have to understand, you don’t get to give a damn
After all you put me through no, you don’t get to
You don’t, you don’t, you don’t
You don’t get to
You don’t get to
You don’t get to

The perfect song for that thin line between love and hate, and the incredible pain that comes from it

[stevek]

This song will never get the attention it deserves, thats okay, more for us

[sarahpeters]

Holy shit! This song is an absolute gut punch of blatant honesty and emotion. Masterfully done, Kenny - and Dustin, Josh and Barry for writing such an amazing song!

[andreaa]

I couldn’t listen to this song without crying a year ago. I had to put the album away. I was getting divorced. I went on a road trip just now and could sing the song. It’s empowering. I’m stronger. I’m not healed yet but stronger. Thank you for a beautiful song.

I lived this song so many times. I read "The Tennesseean" article about this song.: "We all get caught up in these relationships and addicted to certain people, " Chesney says. "And we all find a reason to let them back in. But this song was about that person finally standing up for themselves and saying, 'You don't get to act this way anymore, and I'm gonna respect myself and move on with my life.' " the girl I'm thinking of this song thinking of you- and you know who you are: I wish you well, but now, but the days and nights of coming in an out of my life are over. - You don't get I"ve you haven't and when you finally get it- karma will come back to you.

I feel every word of this song! Down in my my bones 🥴

[heatherh]

Just hearing this today for the first time. Wow! No song like this one. I love it! It’s empowering. The first 2 lines hit hard.

[charlesjacquez]

The only thing I don't like about this song is its too short. I have to keep rewinding it! And always with tears in my eyes. Love it! Thank you Kenny

[jen]

This is what narcissistic abuse looks like. Been no contact for almost 3 months and best decision I've ever made. Rebuilding myself and loving life. Thank you Kenny Chesney for this song. ❤

[jessicakranis]

Thank you for putting into words what most of us have felt in relationships. Until you find that right one. I sing this song loud because I have taken back my power over others that I gave control too. Love you Kenny always 💜

[slimeboss]

Beautiful! Incredible words & truth when that someone does not deserve you. Love it Kenny♥️

[jenniferwilson]

Listened obsessively to this album when it came out. And now, once again. What a heartbreaking, beautiful song.

[CherylBattista]

songwriting at it's finest....delivered with that realness that Kenny does so well.

[jamalabeer]

Oh man...I needed a warning on this. I just sent it to my own "you don't get to." This album is everything!!! It is my favorite so far by Kenny.

[brejchaoutdoors]

Love Kenny Chesney. My grandparents live for him. While fishing they play his music, traveling, everywhere they go and everything they do they listen to him.
