Johnny Rivers - Do What You Gotta Do lyrics

Girl, I can understand how it might be
Kinda hard to love a guy like me
I don't blame you much for wanting to be free
I just wanted you to know
I loved you better than your own kin did
From the very start
It's my own fault for what
Happens to my heart
You see I've always known you'd go

But you just do what you gotta do
My wild sweet love
Though it may mean I'll never
Kiss your sweet lips again pay that no mind
Find that dappled dream of yours
Come on back and see me when you can

Now, I know they make you sad
They make you feel so bad
They say you don't treat me like you should
They got ways to make you feel no good
I guess they've got no way to know
I've had my eyes wide open from the start
And girl, you never lied to me
And the part of you they'll never see
Is the part you've shown to me

Now you just do what you gotta do
My wild sweet love
Though it may mean I'll never kiss
Those sweet lips again pay that no mind
Chase that dappled dream of yours
Come on back and see me when you can

Yeah you just do what you gotta do
My wild sweet love
