If You Gotta Go, Go Now

If You Gotta Go, Go Now (Complete Greatest Hits Of Manfred Mann)



Listen to me, baby

I'm trying to make you see

That I want to be with you, girl

If you want to be with me



But if you gotta go, it's all right

But if you gotta go, go now

Or else you gotta stay all night



I am just a poor boy, baby

Trying to connect

But I don't want you thinkin'

Oh that I ain't got any respect



But if you gotta go, it's all right

But if you gotta go, go now

Or else you gotta stay all night



Now I'm not trying to question you

To take part in any quiz

It's just that I don't have a watch

And you keep askin' me what time it is



But if you gotta go, it's all right

But if you gotta go, go now

Or else you gotta stay all night



Now I don't want to make you give

Anything you never gave before

It's just that I'll be sleepin' soon

It'll be too dark for you to find the door



But if you gotta go, well it's all right

Well if you gotta go, go now

Or else you gotta stay all night
