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)
