Lyrics

GOTTA GET GOIN'
Written by: Marie Siemens & Richard Ford

She comes screechin' to a stop
Underneath that ole' hemlock
Slams the door an' stomps up on the porch
Blarin' in like a hurricane
Thru the tired ole trailer door
Throwin' her shoes n' apron on the grimy floor

PC:
Pants undone and sluggin' beer, he's watchin' ESPN
She says "Hon, you're outta here - ya lazy has-been!"

C:
Best ya know ya gotta get goin'
Cuz you've done wore my patience all too thin
So I guess it best that you be knowin'
You're playin' a game you just can't win
An' I'm sayin' you're needin ta know
Ya gotta get goin'

Now he's saddled on a stool
In a smoky ole' bar room
Lookin' for love; didn't have to look too far
He couldn't help but have his eye
Set right on this beauty all night
She was cute an boot-scootin' cross the floor

PC:
From behind he felt her man breathin' down his neck
Sayin "what the heck?"

C:
Best ya know, ya gotta get goin'
Cuz you've done wore my patience all too thin
So I guess it best that you be knowin'
You're playin' a game you just can't win
An' I'm sayin' you're needin' ta know...
Ya gotta get goin'

Bridge:
There an' then his conscience kicked in
An as he walked away
He was heard to say

Chorus out:
'Best I know, I've gotta get goin'
Cuz I done wore em' patience all too thin
So I guess it best that I be knowin'
I'm playin' a game I just can't win
An' I'm sayin' I'm needin' ta know...
I've gotta get goin'
