Atlanta Rhythm Section - Everybody Gotta Go lyrics

rate me

Everybody’s gotta go sometime, but I’m so far from ready

Ain’t gonna let it, mess my mind,

I’m gonna keep on rockin’ steady

Don’t you know, everybody’s gotta go sometime

You can drink, you can smoke,

you can do your dope, take a pill to ease your tension

You can dose, and dose, until you overdose,

it’s called suicide prevention

But, don’t you know, everybody’s gotta go

Everybody’s gotta go sometime, but I’m so far from ready

Ain’t gonna let it, mess my mind,

I’m gonna keep on rockin’ steady

Don’t you know, Lord, don’t you know

Don’t you know, we all gotta go sometime

Take monkeys, and rabbits,

and little white rats, shoot ‘em full of this and that

There’s cancer in your food,

cancer in the air, cancer in your cigarettes

Take vitamin C, B-12 and E, for your eyes, teeth, skin and bones

But, when the good Lord calls,

you can forget it all, don’t you know you’re good as gone

Don’t you know, Lord, don’t you know

Don’t you know, we all gotta go sometime

You can drink, you can smoke,

you can do your dope, take a pill to ease your tension

You can dose, and dose, until you overdose,

it’s called suicide prevention

But, don’t you know, everybody’s gotta go

Everybody’s gotta go sometime, but I’m so far from ready

Ain’t gonna let it, mess my mind,

I’m gonna keep on rockin’ steady

3X - Everybody know, everybody gotta go sometime

That’s means me and you baby,

as long as we’re goin’ to heaven, I don’t mind
