Story behind the song
He's a man on the move! He wants to be with a woman and be a kept man but he just gets himself in trouble everywhere he turns.
Lyrics
GOTTA GET GOIN' Written by: Marie Siemens & Richard Ford She comes screechin' to a stop Underneath that ole' hemlock Slams the door an' stomps up on the porch Blarin' in like a hurricane Thru the tired ole trailer door Throwin' her shoes n' apron on the grimy floor PC: Pants undone and sluggin' beer, he's watchin' ESPN She says "Hon, you're outta here - ya lazy has-been!" C: Best ya know ya gotta get goin' Cuz you've done wore my patience all too thin So I guess it best that you be knowin' You're playin' a game you just can't win An' I'm sayin' you're needin ta know Ya gotta get goin' Now he's saddled on a stool In a smoky ole' bar room Lookin' for love; didn't have to look too far He couldn't help but have his eye Set right on this beauty all night She was cute an boot-scootin' cross the floor PC: From behind he felt her man breathin' down his neck Sayin "what the heck?" C: Best ya know, ya gotta get goin' Cuz you've done wore my patience all too thin So I guess it best that you be knowin' You're playin' a game you just can't win An' I'm sayin' you're needin' ta know... Ya gotta get goin' Bridge: There an' then his conscience kicked in An as he walked away He was heard to say Chorus out: 'Best I know, I've gotta get goin' Cuz I done wore em' patience all too thin So I guess it best that I be knowin' I'm playin' a game I just can't win An' I'm sayin' I'm needin' ta know... I've gotta get goin' (© 2008 Marie Siemens, Richard Ford, All Rights Reserved) Demo'd by: John Foster
