I've Got To Be |
Talked to my friend again today |
Forty days and forty nights |
It rained all over the world |
To be exact |
Sinners played and disobeyed |
The Word coming down |
That’s a fact |
Some people take it for a joke |
They can’t understand |
They nailed Our Saviour to the cross |
But he told them all |
He’d rise again, rise again! |
I talked to my friend again today |
This is what he had to say: |
You’re going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
And we ain’t got no hope |
We’re going up in smoke |
I talked to my friuend again today |
This is what he had to say: |
You’re going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
And we ain’t got no hope |
'cause we’re going up in smoke… |
I talked to my friend again today |
Don’t be afraid by what I say |
Don’t wait 'till Judgement Day |
To start to pray… |
Stop the hey! |
killing now |
We’ll all have to go anyhow |
Everyone’s having tons of fun |
Who’s gonna take the blame? |
He let His Son get close to earth |
So we all go up |
In bright of day |
In bright of day |
I talked to my friend again today |
This is what he had to say: |
You’re going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
And we ain’t got no hope |
'cause we’re going up in smoke… |
You’re going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
And we ain’t got no hope |
'cause we’re going up in smoke! |
Oh, I talked to my friend today… |
Music break |
Everybody’s having tons of fun |
Who’s gonna take the blame? |
He let His Son Come to earth |
So we all go up |
In bright of day |
In bright of day |
I talked to my friend again today |
This is what he had to say: |
You’re going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
And we ain’t got no hope |
'cause we’re going up in smoke… |
You’re going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
And we ain’t got no hope |
'cause we’re going up in smoke! |
I talked to my friend today… |
Going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
And we ain’t got no hope |
'cause we’re going up in smoke! |
Going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
And we ain’t got no hope |
'cause we’re going up in smoke! |
Going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
And we ain’t got no hope |
'cause we’re going up in smoke! |
Going, going… |
Yeah, Sinners prayed, disobeyed |
The word coming down… |
Going, ooohh, yeah… |
Everyone’s having tons of fun… |
Who’s gonna take the blame… |
Chorus: (Repeat x 5) |
Going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
Going up in smoke |
And we ain’t got no hope |
'cause we’re going up in smoke! |
