I Gotta Go Now Lyrics

I gotta go now, gotta go now
I gotta go now, gotta go now

Hey, little girl
I've gotta go now.
Hey, little girl.
I've gotta go now.

Well your mum,
She's so angry
Hey, little girl,
Guess I'd better go now.

Hey, little girl.
What'cha gonna do 'bout it now?
Hey, little girl.
What'cha gonna do 'bout it now?

Well I love you,
But I guess I'd better go now.
Hey, little girl,
Guess I'd better go now.

I gotta go now, gotta go now
I gotta go now, gotta go now

I don't want to leave you
But I guess I'd better go now.
Soon we'll be together all the time
But until then I gotta go, gotta go.

I gotta go now, gotta go now
I gotta go now, gotta go now

Hey, little girl,
I gotta go now, gotta go now
Hey, little girl,
I gotta go now, gotta go now

Well I love you,
But I guess I'd better go now.
Hey, little girl,
Guess I'd better go now.

I gotta go now, gotta go now
I gotta go now, gotta go now
I've gotta go.

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.
