Do What I Have To Do

All around this country, trouble in the air

And I hear the voices calling me

Asking "do you know and do you care?

Do you know and do you care?"

So I'm a-gonna do what I have to do

Say what I have to say

And I'm gonna be what I have to be

Now won't you come on along with me?

Won't you come along with me?

Don't want to cause no sorrow

Don't want to cause no pain

I'm only gonna cause what I have to cause

Until this land is free of shame

'til this land is free of shame

So I'm a-gonna do what I have to do

Say what I have to say

And I'm gonna be what I have to be

Now won't you come on along with me?

Won't you come along with me?

Only one thing I know, I know we're not alone

Was a million here before we came

Be a million when we're gone, we're gone

Million when we're gone

So I'm a-gonna do what I have to do

Say what I have to say

And I'm gonna be what I have to be

Now won't you come on along with me?

Won't you come along with me?

Oh, I'm afraid of trouble, yes I'm afraid of jail

But I'm more afraid, lord, not to try

More afraid of what happens, now, if we fail

What happens now if we fail

So I'm a-gonna do what I have to do

Say what I have to say

And I'm gonna be what I have to be

Now won't you come on along with me?

Won't you come along with me?
