LATE FOR WORK
FOR THE THIRD TIME
THIS WEEK
BABY'S CRYIN'
DIDN'T GET
A BIT OF SLEEP
THIS FAMILY LIFE
AIN'T ALL IT'S
CRACKED UP TO BE
MAYBE I
MADE A BIG MISTAKE
BUT WE'RE STILL YOUNG
AND IT'S NOT TOO LATE
TO COME OUT AND TELL
I'VE GOT TO BE FREE
A MAN'S GOTTA DO
WHAT A MAN'S
GOTTA DO
ON THE ROAD OF LIFE
SEEK HIS OWN TRUTH
TAKE A STAND
DRAW THE LINE
WE DON'T HAVE
BUT SO MUCH TIME
YOU DIE WHEN YOU DIE
YOU LIVE
HOW YOU CHOOSE
A MAN'S GOTTA DO
WHAT A MAN'S GOTTA DO
ALL THE WAY HOME
TWISTIN' MY RING
PASSED THE HOUSE
GOTTA HAVE
A COUPLE DRINKS
AND ASK MY FRIENDS
WHAT THEY THINK
I OUGHTA DO
SUPPER'S WAITIN'
LIKE IT ALWAYS IS
BUT THAT'S
JUST SOMETHIN'
I'M GONNA HAVE TO MISS
I NEED SOME TIME
TO THINK
THIS THROUGH
A MAN'S GOTTA DO
WHAT A MAN'S GOTTA DO
ON THE ROAD OF LIFE
SEEK HIS OWN TRUTH
TAKE A STAND
DRAW THE LINE
WE DON'T HAVE
BUT SO MUCH TIME
YOU DIE WHEN YOU DIE
YOU LIVE
HOW YOU CHOOSE
A MAN'S GOTTA DO
WHAT A MAN'S GOTTA DO
I CAME HOME
AT MIDNIGHT
AND OPENED UP
THE DOOR
EVERYONE WAS SLEEPIN'
SO I TIPTOED ACROSS
THE FLOOR
I STOPPED AT HIS CRADLE
AND I WATCHED
MY BABY SLEEP
I SWORE TO HIM
AND JESUS
THAT I'LL NEVER LEAVE
'CAUSE A MAN'S GOTTA DO
WHAT A MAN'S GOTTA DO
ON THE ROAD OF LIFE
SEEK HIS OWN TRUTH
TAKE A STAND
DRAW THE LINE
WE DON'T HAVE
BUT SO MUCH TIME
YOU DIE WHEN YOU DIE
YOU LIVE
HOW YOU CHOOSE
A MAN'S GOTTA DO
WHAT A MAN'S GOTTA DO
IT'S WHAT A MAN'S
GOTTA DO
