Jon Bon Jovi We Gotta Get Out Of This Place Lyrics

We Gotta Get Out Of This Place Lyrics

In this dirty old part of the city

Where the sun refused to shine

People tell me there ain't no use in tryin'



Now my girl you're so young and pretty

And one thing I know is true

You'll be dead before your time is due, I know



Watch my daddy in bed a-dyin'

Watched his hair been turnin' grey

He's been workin' and slavin' his life away

Oh yes I know it



(Yeah!) He's been workin' so hard

(Yeah!) I've been workin' too, baby

(Yeah!) Every night and day

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!)



We gotta get out of this place

If it's the last thing we ever do

We gotta get out of this place

'cause girl, there's a better life for me and you



Now my girl you're so young and pretty

And one thing I know is true, yeah

You'll be dead before your time is due, I know it



Watch my daddy in bed a-dyin'

Watched his hair been turnin' grey, yeah

He's been workin' and slavin' his life away

I know he's been workin' so hard



(Yeah!) I've been workin' too, baby

(Yeah!) Every day baby

(Yeah!) Whoa!

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!)



We gotta get out of this place

If it's the last thing we ever do

We gotta get out of this place

Girl, there's a better life for me and you

Somewhere baby, somehow I know it



We gotta get out of this place

If it's the last thing we ever do

We gotta get out of this place

Girl, there's a better life for me and you

Believe me baby

I know it baby

You know it too
