Lyrics
DO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO
(Willis/Decker)
Wake up, it?s 6am
Time to start another day again
Get the kids up and off to school
Gonna try and learn the golden rule
Thinkin? Life?s not all that grand
Maybe you could use a helpin? hand
Husband?s always working nine-to-five
Pays the bills just to try to survive
Chorus
Do what you gotta do
You know that you can make it through
You?re trying harder every day
Somehow you?re gonna make it pay
You do what you gotta do
You?re always lookin? for something new
You?re just trying to do the right thing
Who knows, who knows what tomorrow brings?
No power lunch for you today
You?re just tryin? to put the laundry away
Been outta the loop for so long
You start to think that something?s wrong
So many times you think of giving it up
And trade the kids in for a pickup truck
Repeat chorus
I?ll show them all that I survived
Can?t take away my foolish pride
I play for keeps, I play to win
So, let the good times begin
Everyday your life?s prearranged
You could use a little time away
Just take a moment to search your soul
Struggle all the time to gain control
Thinkin? life?s not all that bad
You?re always thankful for what you have
Looks like tomorrow you?ll be feeling strong
Seems alright as long as nothing goes wrong
Repeat chorus
Tired of chasin? my life around
Sometimes it really gets me down
Just trying to do the right thing
Who knows, who knows what tomorrow brings?
