Patti Austin - You Gotta Be lyrics

rate me

Time asks no questions, it goes on without you

Leaving you behind if you cannot stand the pace

The world it keeps on spinning, can't stop it if you tried to

The best part is danger staring you in the face

Listen as your day unfolds

Challenge what your future holds

Try to keep your head up to the sky

Lovers they may cause your tears

Go ahead release your fears

Stand up and be counted, don't be ashamed to cry

Chorus:

You gotta be, you gotta be bad

You gotta be bold, you gotta be wiser

You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you got to be stronger

You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, you gotta stay together

All I know, all I know love will save the day

Herald what your mother said

Read the books your daddy read

Try to solve the puzzles in your own sweet time

Some may have more cash than you

Others take the different view, my, oh, my yeaah

Chorus:

You gotta be bad

You gotta be bold, you gotta be wiser

You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you got to be stronger

You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, you gotta stay together

All I know, all I know love will save the day

Time asks no questions, it goes on without you

Leaving you behind if you can't stand the pace

The world keeps on spinning, can't stop it if you tried to

The best part is danger staring you in the face.

Listen as your day unfolds

Challenge what your future holds

Try to keep your head up to the sky

Lovers they may cause your tears

Go ahead release your fears

Stand up, be counted, don't be ashamed to cry

Chorus:

You gotta be bad

You gotta be bold, you gotta be wiser

You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you got to be stronger

You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, you gotta stay together

All I know love is will save the day

Well I know, yeah I know

Talking 'bout love, you have to light it

Talking 'bout love, It's a matter of my right

Talking 'bout love, yeah I'm ready

Talking 'bout living your life, living your life away

You're the one and only, talking 'bout you and me

I said love, I'm in love

You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, you gotta be wiser

You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger

You got to be cool, you gotta be calm, you gotta stay together

All I know love is will save the day

You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold

You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough

You gotta stay cool, you gotta stay together

Love will save the day

You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold

You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough

You gotta be cool
