  • From the east coast to the west coast
    Gotta gotta gotta go
    Two sounds of a revolution
    Gotta gotta gotta go
    In our hearts in our souls
    Gotta gotta gotta go
    United we stand divided we fall
    Gotta gotta go

    Can't keep touch with you or me
    Gotta gotta go
    Need sense of security
    Gotta gotta go
    Want to live my life for me
    Gotta gotta go
    Why can't they just let me be
    Gotta gotta go

    Say I'm crazy
    Just brain dead
    Planting thoughts
    Within my head
    Can't believe
    What I've said
    What has become of me
    What has become of me

    Don't believe what you've been told
    Gotta gotta go
    Never seen no streets paved in gold
    Gotta gotta go
    Mindless violence ruined me
    Gotta gotta go
    No such thing as something
    Gotta gotta go

    Say I'm crazy
    Just brain dead
    Planting thoughts
    Within my head
    Can't believe
    What I've said
    What has become of me
    What has become of me

    I gotta gotta go
    Gotta gotta go
    I gotta gotta go
    Gotta gotta go
    I gotta gotta get out of here
    Gotta gotta go
    I gotta gotta go
    Gotta gotta go
    I gotta gotta go
    I gotta gotta go
    I gotta gotta go
    I gotta gotta get out of here

    I gotta gotta go
    I gotta gotta go
    I gotta gotta go
    Out of here Writer/s: JIMMY COLETTE, ROB KABULA, ROGER MIRET, VINNIE CAPPUCCHIO

  • AnonymousYou better check your facts. Roger didn't write the lyrics...and the music was not written by anyine in tge band. In fact the lead guitar wasn't even played by a band member......anymore than Eric clapton wrote the words to crossroad blues.....
