Gotta Get Up

Gotta get up, gotta get out Gotta get home before the mornin' comes What if I'm late, gotta big date? Gotta get home before the sun comes up Up and away, got a big day Sorry can't stay, I gotta run, run yeah Gotta get home, pick up the phone I gotta let the people know I'm gonna be late There was a time when we could dance until a quarter to ten We never thought it would end then We never thought it would end We used to carry on and drink and do the rock and roll We never thought we'd get older We never thought it'd grow cold, but now Gotta get up, gotta get out Gotta get home before the mornin' comes What if I'm late, gotta big date? Gotta get home before the sun comes up Up and away, got a big day Sorry can't stay, I gotta run, run yeah Gotta get home, pick up the phone I gotta let the people know I'm gonna be late Down by the sea she knew a sailor who had been to war She never even knew a sailor before She never even knew his name He'd come to town and he would pound her for a couple of days And then he'd sail across the bubbly waves And those were happier days, but now Gotta get up, gotta get out Gotta get home before the mornin' comes What if I'm late, gotta big date? Gotta get home before the sun comes up Up and away, got a big day Sorry can't stay, I gotta run, run yeah Gotta get home, pick up the phone I gotta let the people know I'm gonna be late
