- I Gotta Go Lyrics / with translationsGot no time to shoot the breeze
got no time to blow,
Excuse me mister if you please
I gotta go
Born one morn on the day of the dead
in a bombed out bungalow
My mama kissed my cheek and said
I gotta go
I gotta go somewhere, I gotta go Chorus
wastin time standin here
I gotta go
They put me in an orphanage
just west of Tupelo
I told 'em when I burnt that bridge
I gotta go
I stole a car, I got a gun
I robbed the Hi De Ko
I left Memphis on the run
I gotta go
Repeat chorus
Instrumental
Five card stud, dueces wild
three Kings in a row
I turned that diamond duece and smiled
I gotta go.
They tracked me dowm, they took my take
And brother don't you know
I told them boys there's somethin strange
I gotta go
Cold steel up against my head
they turned the lamps down low
In case you didn't hear I said
I gotta go
These are your veery last words son
say 'em nice and slow
My last words on this planet were
I gotta go
repeat chorus twice.
I gotta go
got no time to blow,
Excuse me mister if you please
I gotta go
Born one morn on the day of the dead
in a bombed out bungalow
My mama kissed my cheek and said
I gotta go
I gotta go somewhere, I gotta go Chorus
wastin time standin here
I gotta go
They put me in an orphanage
just west of Tupelo
I told 'em when I burnt that bridge
I gotta go
I stole a car, I got a gun
I robbed the Hi De Ko
I left Memphis on the run
I gotta go
Repeat chorus
Five card stud, dueces wild
three Kings in a row
I turned that diamond duece and smiled
I gotta go.
They tracked me dowm, they took my take
And brother don't you know
I told them boys there's somethin strange
I gotta go
Cold steel up against my head
they turned the lamps down low
In case you didn't hear I said
I gotta go
These are your veery last words son
say 'em nice and slow
My last words on this planet were
I gotta go
repeat chorus twice.
