Whatcha Gonna Do Lyrics

Hey now baby whatcha gonna do when I go
Hey now baby who ya gonna do when I'm gone
As I watched you from above
Bodies glistened while I listened
To you screaming out his name in love
Oh no no
Hey now baby whatcha gonna do when I go
Hey yeah they say you love the girl
While I'm wasted as you taste it
Wicked pleasures, sins of flesh and blood
Woke up drunk in the morning
Sipping on my cup all day
Stone cold bitch you're ballin'
And I bet that you want to stay
Well you go down to the city
And you get yourself in line
Cause if I don't need you baby
I'll catch you another time
Get This!
Hey now baby
Whatcha gonna do when I go
Hey now baby
Who ya gonna do when I'm gone
Hey now baby
Whatcha gonna do when I go
Hey now baby
Who ya gonna do when I'm gone
I'm asking whatcha gonna do

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song is clearly about somebody finding out that the wife/girlfriend is cheating on them, that's what my opinion.
