Everybody Gotta Go

(album: A Rock And Roll Alternative - 1976)

Everybody's gotta go sometime
But I'm so far from ready
Ain't gonna let it, mess my mind
I'm gonna keep on rocking steady

Don't you know
Everybody's gotta go sometime

You can drink, you can smoke, you can do your dope
Take a pill to ease your tension
You can dose, and dose, until you overdose
It's called suicide prevention
But, don't you know, everybody's gotta go

Everybody's gotta go sometime
But I'm so far from ready
Ain't gonna let it, mess my mind
I'm gonna keep on rocking steady

Don't you know
Lord, don't you know
Don't you know
We all gotta go sometime

Take monkeys, and rabbits, and little white rats
Shoot 'em full of this and that
There's cancer in your food, cancer in the air
Cancer in your cigarettes
Take vitamin C, B-12 and E
For your eyes, teeth, skin and bones
But, when the good Lord calls, you can forget it all
Don't you know you're good as gone

Don't you know
Lord, don't you know
Don't you know
We all gotta go sometime

You can drink, you can smoke, you can do your dope
Take a pill to ease your tension
You can dose, and dose, until you overdose
It's called suicide prevention

But, don't you know, everybody's gotta go

Everybody's gotta go sometime
But I'm so far from ready
Ain't gonna let it, mess my mind
I'm gonna keep on rocking steady

Everybody know, everybody gotta go sometime
That's means me and you baby
As long as we're going to heaven, I don't mind
