John Legend - Johnnys Gotta Go Lyrics

[Intro]
Yo, it's your boy John Legend
D. Teezy on the track
Be easy, y'all, I gotta go

[Chorus]
Johnny's gotta get away (Yeah, yeah)
I really wasn't born to stay (This goes out to)
I'm gonna make it big someday (All my people in Ohio)
So I gotta go (I love y'all, but I got to go)
Y'all don't have to cry for me (Yeah, yeah)
'Cause I'll be making history (Ha, yeah)
I'm gonna hit the big city, so I gotta go (Yeah)

[Verse 1]
There comes a time when you gotta go and chase your destiny
Change your pace, change your place, be what you're supposed to be
Well, I'm older now and this town ain't really big enough for me
Got places to go, people to see, you know I gotta leave, oh

[Chorus]
Johnny's gotta get away (I gotta get away)
I really wasn't born to stay (Yeah)
I'm gonna make it big someday, so I gotta go (Mama, don't cry)
Y'all don't have to cry for me (Hey)
'Cause I'll be making history
I'm gonna hit the big city, so I gotta go (Yeah)
[Verse 2]
I told my mom and my daddy that they don't have to worry about me
I'ma be alright, I'll be okay
Yeah, I'ma do real big things
And when it's said and done, your second son will be the one
To change the game, claim to fame
The kids will be singing my name, oh

[Chorus]
Johnny's gotta get away (Yeah, yeah)
I really wasn't born to stay (Oh)
I'm gonna make it big someday, so I gotta go (Mama, don't cry)
Y'all don't have to cry for me (Woo, woo, woo, yeah)
'Cause I'll be making history (Oh)
I'm gonna hit the big city, so I gotta go

[Bridge]
I said I'll be leavin'
Ooh, I gotta get outta town, I can't wait around
The train's in the station now
Right now I'm on my way to fame
I got a ticket to ride, a ticket to go
When I'm coming back, I'll never know

[Chorus]
Johnny's gotta get away (Yeah, yeah)
I really wasn't born to stay
I'm gonna make it big someday, so I gotta go (Oh, mama, don't cry)
Y'all don't have to cry for me (Woo, woo, woo, yeah)
'Cause I'll be making history
I'm gonna hit the big city, so I gotta go
[Outro]
I said I'll be leavin' (I gotta go)
Woo (Yeah, yeah)
I gotta go
Man, I love y'all, I'll miss y'all, but I gotta go (We out)
I love y'all
