Do What I Gotta Do

I don't know how to do this

Oh, I guess it's one of those a man just has to do (I gotta do)

But I promise

It'll work out for the better, baby

Trust me this

(I gotta do)

I've been feelin' lately like bein' single or just alone

To get into myself (I gotta do)

Love ain't easy, makin' me crazy, games that we play

Sometimes the rules have to change

Oh, I don't wanna treat her cruel

But I like honesty

So what am I gonna do?

I guess I'll do what I gotta do

And break her heart

I don't wanna see her cry

But it's hard to live a lie

So I gotta (Do what I gotta do)

And break her heart

Though I love the girl, I know

That the best thing is for us to be apart

Be apart, baby

Ooh

(I gotta do)

Any good relationship starts inside of a happy man

I think she will understand (I gotta do)

If I tell her straight up, then she can only respect me

Even if we don't agree

Oh, I don't wanna treat her cruel

But I like honesty, baby

So what am I gonna do?

Oh, I've got to do (What I gotta do)

(And break her heart)

I don't wanna see her cry

But it's hard to live a lie

So I gotta (Do what I gotta do)

(And break her heart) Break her little heart

Though I love the girl, I know

That the best thing is for us to be apart

Listen, baby

Oh, sugar, no (Do what I gotta do)

I gotta do what I gotta do, oh baby (What am I gonna do?)

Oh, let me break it to you gently

I don't want to (Do what I gotta do) hurt you girl

All that I can do, do (What am I gonna do?), ooh

Do, do, do, do, do, do (Do what I gotta do)

And I don't wanna see you cry, baby

But what am I gonna do?

Oh, I've got to do (What I gotta do)

(And break her heart) Heart

I don't wanna see her cry

But it's hard to live a lie

So I gotta (Do what I gotta do)

(And break her heart) Break her little heart

Though I love the girl, I know

That the best thing is for us to be apart

(Do what I gotta do)

(And break her heart) Her heart, girl

Yeah, I don't wanna see you cry, baby

But you know that it's drivin' me crazy

(Do what I gotta do)

(And break her heart) Ooh

And though I love the girl, I know

That the best thing is for us to be apart

I know it's gonna work out for the better

And the best thing is for us to be apart
