Gotta Get Up (Another Day)

[Intro: Jill Scott]

I

Don't

Want

To

Go

To

Work

Today

I'd rather

Stay home and play

Video games

Home... chill

[Chorus:]

But I gotta get up

I gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta get up

I gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta get up

I gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta get up

Get up

[Verse 1:]

I don't want to go to work today

I'd rather stay home and play video games

I'd rather chill for real

I don't know how you feel

But sometimes I feel like I'm

Workin' for nothin', tryin' to get somethin'

Every where I turn there's a bill, standing out

Swim the river, climb the hill

Complacency, you ain't gone get me, no, no, no, no

[Chorus:]

'Cause I gotta get up

I gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta get up

I gotta gotta gotta...

(Got... to... get... up...)

(Got... to... get... up...)

(Got... to... get... up...)

(Got... to... get... up...)

[Verse 1, repeated:]

I don't want to go to work today

I'd rather stay home and play video games

I'd rather chill for real

I don't know how you feel

But sometimes I feel like I'm

Workin' for nothin', tryin' to get somethin'

Every where I turn there's a bill, standing out

Swim the river, climb the hill

Complacency, you ain't gone get me, no, no, no, no!

[Chorus: Jill Scott (Valvin "V" Roane)]

'Cause I gotta get up (Ohhhh...)

I gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta get up (Ohhhh...)

Get up (Ohhhh...)

I gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta get up (Ohhhh...)

Get up (Ohhhh...)

I gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta get up (Ohhhh...)

Get up (Ohhhh...)

[Verse 2:]

I'd rather be in my space

I'd rather chill in my place

Imagine go out and play all day, I...

I'd rather chill at home

I'd rather lay alone

True, but I got to work

I don't wanna go

I wanna play today

But, what can I say?

Bills to pay

I just can't get comfortable doing (doing) nothin' (nothin')

[Bridge: Valvin "V" Roane, (Jill Scott)]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh (Got, got, got...)

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh [Jill scatting and vocalizing "di-di-di-da" etc.]

[Refrain/Outro: Jill Scott, continued scatting at the same time]

Hey! Gotta get up

Gotta, gotta, gotta get up

Gotta, gotta, gotta get up

Gotta, gotta, gotta get up

Gotta, gotta, gotta get up

Gotta, gotta, gotta get up

Gotta, gotta, gotta get up

Gotta, gotta, gotta get up

Gotta, gotta, gotta get up
