If You Gotta Go, Go Now (1965) Songtext
von Bob Dylan

Listen to me, baby
There′s somethin' you must see
I wanna be with you, gal
If you wanna be with me

But if you gotta go
It′s alright
But if you got to go, go now
Or else you got to stay all night

It ain't that I'm questionin′ you
To take part in any kinda quiz
It′s just that I haven't got no watch
N′ you keep askin' me what time it is


So if you gotta go
It′s alright
But if you gotta go, go now
Or else you got to stay all night

I am just a poor boy, baby
Tryin' to connect
But I certainly don′t want you thinkin'
That I haven't got any respect

So if you got to go
It′s alright
But if you gotta go, go now
Or else you got to stay all night

It ain′t that I'm wanting
Anything you never gave before
It′s just that I'll be sleeping soon
And it′ll be too dark for you to find the door


So if you gotta go
It's alright
But if you gotta go, go now
Or else you got to stay all night
