Lyrics

(Gotta do right, gotta do right, ah, sometimes)
Talking 'bout a revolution
Or maybe just a change of mind
Working on my constitution
I began to realize
I've been doing wrong forever
Trouble was my favourite game, yeah
Breaking hearts, I thought was so clever
But I'm the one who got hurt playing
I never could see it coming, no
Never could feel it till it's come and gone
But all of that don't mean nothing, no
When you're all alone, oh
Sometimes you gotta do right to be happy
One time you gotta believe in what you feel inside
Sometimes you gotta do right to find happiness, yeah
Sometimes, sometimes
(Gotta do right, you gotta do right, ah, sometimes)
You're lookin' at a transformation
That's brought about a change in me
Love's a brand new situation
Never have I felt so free
Cause I can see it coming, yeah, yeah
And I can feel it calling louder now, now, now
Lovin' is so rewarding, yeah
When you let it out
Sometimes you gotta do right to be happy
(Sometimes, sometimes)
One time you gotta believe in what you feel inside
(Sometimes, sometimes)
Sometimes you gotta do right to find happiness, yeah
(Sometimes, sometimes)
Sometimes, sometimes
Sometimes you gotta do right to be happy
(Sometimes, sometimes)
One time you gotta believe in what you feel inside
(Sometimes, sometimes)
Sometimes you gotta do right to find happiness, oh-yeah
(Sometimes, sometimes)
Sometimes, sometimes, oh-oh
Gotta do right, gotta do right, ah (Sometimes, sometimes)
Gotta do right, gotta do right, ah (Sometimes, sometimes)
Gotta do right, gotta do right, ah (Sometimes)
Sometimes, sometimes, oh
Sometimes you gotta do right to be happy, yeah
(Sometimes, sometimes)
One time you gotta believe in what you feel inside
(Sometimes, sometimes)
Sometimes you gotta do right to find happiness, yeah
(Sometimes, sometimes)
Sometimes, sometimes
Sometimes
(Sometimes, sometimes)
(Gotta do right, gotta do right, ah, sometimes, sometimes)
One time you gotta believe
(Gotta do right, gotta do right, ah, sometimes, sometimes)
(Sometimes, sometimes)
Sometimes you gotta do right
(Gotta do right, gotta do right, ah, sometimes, sometimes)
(Sometimes, sometimes)
Sometimes, sometimes
(Gotta do right, gotta do right, ah, sometimes, sometimes)
(Gotta do right, gotta do right, ah, sometimes, sometimes)
(Gotta do right, gotta do right, ah, sometimes, sometimes)
