Lyrics Harry Nilsson – Gotta Get Up

Text:

Gotta get up
Gotta get out
Gotta get home before the morning comes
What if I’m late

Got a big day
Gotta get home before the sun comes up

Up and away
Got a big day
Sorry can’t stay
I gotta run run yeah

Gotta get home
Pick up the phone
I gotta let the people know
I’m gonna be late

There was a time when we could dance
Until the quarter to ten
We never thought it would end then
We never thought it would end

We used to carry on and drink
And do the rock and roll
We never thought we’d get older
We never thought it’d grow cold
But now

Gotta get up
Gotta get out
Gotta get home before the morning comes
What if I’m late
Got a big day
Gotta get home before the sun comes up

Up and away

Got a big day
Sorry can’t stay,
I gotta run run yeah

Gotta get home
Pick up the phone
I gotta let the people know
I’m gonna be late

Down by the sea
She knew a sailor who had been to war
She never even knew a sailor before
She never even knew his name

He’d come to town
And he would pound her for a couple of days
And then he’d sail across the bubbling waves
And those were happier days
But now

Gotta get up
Gotta get out
Gotta get home before the morning comes
What if I’m late
Got a big day
Gotta get home before the sun comes up

Up and away
Got a big day
Sorry can’t stay
I gotta run run yeah

Gotta get home
Pick up the phone
I gotta let the people know
I’m gonna be late
