The phonetic transcription for this phrase is [ɡæt ðə træk], with the vowel in "gat" pronounced as a short "a" sound. "Gat" functions as the past tense of "get" and means "got", while "the" is pronounced as a schwa sound ([ðə]). "Track" is pronounced with a short "a" sound and a distinct "k" at the end.
