I Gotta Go

Ain't got time to shoot the breeze
 Got no time to blow
 Excuse me, mister, if you please
 I gotta go
 Born one morn on the day of the dead
 In a bombed out bungalow
 My mama kissed me on my cheek and said
 "I gotta go"
 I gotta go somewhere
 I gotta go
 Wastin' time standin' here
 I gotta go
 They put me in an orphanage
 West of Tupelo
 I told 'em when I burnt that bridge
 I gotta go
 Stole a car, got a gun
 Robbed a hidey ho
 I left Memphis on the run
 I gotta go
 I gotta go somewhere
 I gotta go
 Wastin' time standin' here
 I gotta go
 ♪
 Five card stud, deuces wild
 Three kings in a row
 I turned that diamond deuce and smiled
 I gotta go
 They tracked me down, took my take
 Brother, don't you know?
 I told them boys, "There's some mistake
 I gotta go"
 I gotta go somewhere
 I gotta go
 Wastin' time standin' here
 I gotta go
 Cold steel up against my head
 They turned the lights down low
 In case you didn't hear, I said
 "'I gotta go"
 "These are your very last words, sir
 Say 'em nice and slow"
 My last words on this planet were
 I gotta go somewhere
 I gotta go
 Wastin' time standin' here
 I gotta go
 I gotta go somewhere
 I gotta go
 Wastin' time standin' here
 I gotta go
