lyrics
DooWatchaDoo
(Paul Messinger/Marty Barnes)
I don’t need a gun, no,
I don’t need machete knife.
There’s no need for swords, so,
I can’t cut another life short.
Now, it’s time for touchin’ (and livin’), reach
out for a hand now, it’s not
too much to ask.
Do Whatcha Gotta Do.
Now, some go to WAR now, some
say it’s to Praise the Lord now, I think I’ve
heard that line, heard that lie, heard that lion’s roar.
But, I say that NO man, no
man who takes that road can, wind
up where they really want to go.
Chorus:
(Ooooh), Ya Gotta Do Watcha Do Watcha Do Watcha Gotta Do,
‘til the time has come, in your
Life and your Time.
(Ooooh), tell me something I don’t know,
(Ooooh), for what has gone around will surely come around
(come around, yeah).
(Ooooh), it’s gettin’ ready, (Ooooh), to roll, (Ooooh), now
Somethin’s Gettin’ Ready to Roll.
Now believe me when I say...
We don’t need no Boss-man.
We don’t need no ‘Save the World’ plan, don’t
need no more games to play (now believe me).
I’m not-a-one to, tell
people what they should do, but
there is one thing I will say. I say the
time has come, Ya Gotta
Do Watcha Do Watcha Do Watcha Gotta Do, yeah
the time has come, in your Life and your Time.
(Ooooh), it’s gettin’ ready
(Ooooh), to roll
(Ooooh), now Somethin’s Gettin’ Ready to Roll.
I don’t need a drum, no, don’t
need no pack of lies, no
need for more words to paint
no more clear blue skies, no, now
it’s time for touchin’ (and livin’), reach
out for a hand now, it’s not too much to ask.
Do Watcha Gotta Do.
(Ooooh) Ya Gotta Do Watcha Do Watcha Do Watcha Gotta Do
(Ooooh) ‘til the time has come, in your life and your time.
(Ooooh), it’s gettin’ ready
(Ooooh), to roll
(Ooooh), now Somethin’s Gettin’ Ready to Roll!
