We've Gotta Get Out Of This Place Lyrics - The Animals

In this dirty old part of the city 

Where the sun refused to shine 

People tell me there ain't no use in tryin' 

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 a-dyin' 

Watched his hair been turnin' grey 

He's been workin' and slavin' his life away 

Oh yes I know it

He's been workin' so hard 

I've been workin' too, baby 

Every night and day 

We gotta get out of this place 

If it's 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 a-dyin' 

Watched his hair been turnin' grey, yeah 

He's been workin' and slavin' his life away 

I know he's been workin' so hard 

I've been workin' too, baby 

Every day baby 

Whoa!

We gotta get out of this place 

If it's the last thing we ever do 

We gotta get out of this place 

Girl, there's a better life for me and you 

Somewhere baby, somehow I know it baby 

We gotta get out of this place 

If it's the last thing we ever do 

We gotta get out of this place 

Girl, there's a better life for me and you 

Believe me baby 

I know it baby 

You know it too baby
