I've Got To Go Now Lyrics - Singles - Toni Childs

This man I married is buried deep 

And the more I try to wake him, the more he sleeps 

I used to think I knew this man 

The tenderness, not the back of his hand 

It's been two weeks since he last had a drink 

But the time bomb's ticking, I can never sleep 

It would be easier if he did 

Why do I stay here, stay with him? 

Why do you do it? 

Why do you treat us bad? 

When you've got two kids who love you 

And a wife that's missing you bad 

I've got to go now 

I've got to say goodbye 

Don't try to stop us now 

And please, don't you cry 

Can't you see? We've all been through it 

It's all been said before 

With all these tears, for how many years 

Can I keep coming back for more? No more 

Must be addicted to all this pain 

'Cause I keep coming back for the shame 

Dear God, give me the strength to leave 

I've got to keep going, keep going this time 

Why do you do it? 

Why do you treat us bad? 

When you've got two kids who love you 

And a wife that's missing you bad 

I've got to go now 

I've got to say goodbye 

Don't try to stop us now 

And please, don't you cry 

Can't you see? We've all been through it 

It's all been said before 

With all these tears, for how many years 

Can I keep coming back for more? No more 

Don't try to stop us now 

Don't pull that stuff on me 

I've got the kids all packed up 

Harry's in the back with his pick up truck 

Jenny's fallen asleep again 

I've got to keep driving 'til I reach the end 

Why do you do it? 

Why do you treat us bad? 

When you've got two kids who love you 

And a wife that's missing you bad 

I've got to go now 

I've got to say goodbye 

Don't try to stop us now 

And please, don't you cry 

Can't you see? We've all been through it 

It's all been said before 

With all these tears, for how many years 

Can I keep coming back for more? No more 

Can't come back here anymore 

And I know it, I know it 

I, I can't come back here anymore 

And I know it and I know it 

I can't come back here anymore 

And I know it and I know it 

I can't come back here anymore 

And I know it and I know it 

I can't come back here anymore 

And I know it and I know it 

I can't come back here anymore 

And I know it and I know it 

I can't come back here anymore
