Comments:
When Bryan was touring as an opening act for "Journey" in 1982, he always performed "You Want It You Got It" as the last song in his set each night. After all, it was the title track from his just-released second album.

Toyota automobiles were airing a television commercial around that same time, with the slogan "You want it - You got it - Toyota!". As a joke, every time Bryan sang the song on stage, Journey's crew would hold up a big sign that read "TOYOTA".

lyric manuscript
I think I told you maybe once or twice before
He'll only hold you down and leave you wanting more
But you refused to listen babe so this is where you'll stay
If you weren't so bloody juvenile you be somewhere today

If you want it - you got it
If you want it - you got it
If you want it - you got it
If you want it - you got it now

You think you're on the brink but I got news for you
I think it's time to start believin' your reviews
You stood me up and shot me down so many times before
But droppin' names and playin' games won't get you through my door

If you want it - you got it
If you want it - you got it
If you want it - you got it
If you want it - you got it now
