We Gotta Get Out Of This Place Lyrics - The Animals

In this dirty old part of the city 

Where the sun refuse to shine 

People tell me there ain't no use in trying 

Now my girl you're so young and pretty 

And one thing I know is true 

You'll be dead before your time is due 

I know 

Watch my daddy in bed and tired 

Watch his hair been turning gray 

He's been working and slaving his life away 

Oh yes, I know it 

He's been working so hard 

I've been working too babe 

Every night and day 

Yeah yeah yeah yeah 

We gotta get out of this place 

If its the last thing we ever do

We gotta get out of this place 

'Cause girl, there's a better life 

For me and you 

Now my girl you're so young and pretty 

And one thing I know is true, yeah 

You'll be dead before your time is due 

I know it 

Watch my daddy in bed and tired 

Watch his hair been turning gray 

He's been working and slaving his life away 

I know 

He's been working so hard 

I've been working too babe 

Every day baby 

Yeah yeah yeah yeah 

We gotta get out of this place 

If its the last thing we ever do
