If You Gotta Go, Go Now

If You Gotta Go, Go Now Lyrics

IF YOU GOTTA GO, GO NOW
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

CHORUS:
But if you gotta go
Well, 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

(chorus)

Now I'm not trying to question you
To take part in any quiz
It's just that I don't have a watch
& you keep askin' me what time it is

(chorus)

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

(chorus
