PAT BENATAR GETS PUNISHED!  I’m proud to present this reinterpretation of “I’m Gonna Follow You” — a deep-sounding, minor-chord rock version from me, Johnny Punish. I’ve taken the original 1980 Pat Benatar tune and reshaped it into a slower, deliberate rock groove with a shadowy atmosphere, emphasizing the chase, the tension, the streets, the stalking rhythm. In this version, you’ll hear the weight of the chords, the deliberate pace, the raw edge.

Big thanks to Pat Benatar for the inspiration and for bringing this song to life; and full credit to the original writers, Ralph McCarthy & Billy Steinberg.

Proceeds & Monetization Notice:  This version is NOT monetized on [SoundCloud / YouTube] and if any proceeds are earned, they will be directed to the song’s original writers — Ralph McCarthy and Billy Steinberg. My goal is to honor their work while bringing a new musical perspective.

Please Note:  If you enjoy this version, please like, comment and share. I’d also appreciate you spreading the word — it helps me keep doing what I love while supporting the songwriters who created the original. Thank you for listening.

LYRICS
   
I'm gonna follow you
'Til I wear you down
I'm gonna follow you
'Cause this here's my town
You don't know the streets the way that I do (I do, I do)
You can't turn it on the way that I do (I do, I do)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

I'm gonna follow you 
'till I know your timing
You'll turn some corner soon 
and find you can't get by me
You don't know the streets the way that I do (I do, I do)
You can't turn it on the way that I do (I do, I do)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

You think you're safe just 'cause the lights are shinin' brightly  
But in the shadows, baby, that's where you'll find me nightly  

You can run, but you can't hide  
I'm right there, just behind your pride  
I'm gonna dance with you tonight

I'm gonna follow you
'Til I wear you down
I'm gonna follow you
'Cause this here's my town
You don't know the streets the way that I do (I do, I do)
You can't turn it on the way that I do (I do, I do)

You think you're safe just 'cause the lights are shinin' brightly  
But in the shadows, baby, that's where you'll find me nightly 
 
You can run, but you can't hide  
I'm right there, just behind your pride  
I'm gonna dance with you tonight

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
