Atlanta Rhythm Section – Everybody Gotta Go lyrics

Everybody's gotta go sometime
But I'm so far from ready
Ain't gonna let it mess my mind
I'm gonna keep on rockin' steady

Don't you know
Everybody's gotta go sometime

You can drink
You can smoke
You can do your dope
Take a pill to ease your tension

You can dose and dose until you overdose
It's called suicide prevention


But don't you know
Everybody's gotta go
Everybody's gotta go sometime
But I'm so far from ready

Ain't gonna let it mess my mind
I'm gonna keep on rockin' steady

Don't you know
Lord don't you know
Don't you know
We all gotta go sometime

Take monkeys and rabbits and little white rats
Shoot 'em full of this and that

There's cancer in your food cancer in the air
Cancer in your cigarettes

Take vitamin C, B-12 and E,
For your eyes teeth skin and bones

But when the good Lord calls you can forget it all
Don't you know you're good as gone

Don't you know
Lord don't you know

Don't you know
We all gotta go sometime
You can drink you can smoke you can do your dope
Take a pill to ease your tension

You can dose and dose until you overdose
It's called suicide prevention


But don't you know
Everybody's gotta go
Everybody's gotta go sometime
But I'm so far from ready

Ain't gonna let it mess my mind
I'm gonna keep on rockin' steady

Everybody know everybody gotta go sometime

That's means me and you baby
As long as we're goin' to heaven I don't mind
