Do What I Have To Do Lyrics

    pre>intro: dm g dm g

    Dm g dm g
    All around this country, trouble in the air
    Bb am f c7
    And i hear the voices calling me
    F bb f dm
    Asking "do you know and do you care?
    Bb c7 f f7
    Do you know and do you care?"

    Bb f f7
    So i'm a-gonna do what i have to do
    Bb f f7
    Say what i have to say
    Bb am f c7
    And i'm gonna be what i have to be
    F bb f dm
    Now won't you come on along with me?
    Bb c7 f
    Won't you come along with me?

    Don't want to cause no sorrow
    Don't want to cause no pain
    I'm only gonna cause what i have to cause
    Until this land is free of shame
    'til this land is free of shame

    So i'm a-gonna do what i have to do
    Say what i have to say
    And i'm gonna be what i have to be
    Now won't you come on along with me?
    Won't you come along with me?

    Only one thing i know, i know we're not alone
    Was a million here before we came
    Be a million when we're gone, we're gone
    Million when we're gone

    So i'm a-gonna do what i have to do
    Say what i have to say
    And i'm gonna be what i have to be
    Now won't you come on along with me?
    Won't you come along with me?

    Oh, i'm afraid of trouble, yes i'm afraid of jail
    But i'm more afraid, lord, not to try
    More afraid of what happens, now, if we fail
    What happens now if we fail

    So i'm a-gonna do what i have to do
    Say what i have to say
    And i'm gonna be what i have to be
    Now won't you come on along with me?
    Won't you come along with me?
