Sometimes you gotta take the heat
If you're gonna walk down on the mean street
Take the heat and you see it through
Cause sometimes it comes down to
Do what you gotta do.
Sometimes it goes right down to the wire
And you might have to walk through the fire
Walk on, boy, all the way through
Sometimes it just comes down to
Do what you gotta do.
Well, there's people that'll tell you it's just no use
And there's people that'll tell you that you're gonna lose
People that'll tell you anything you're gonna listen to
Do what you gotta do.
Some day they're gonna call your name.
They'll come looking for someone to blame
What's your name boy?
Hey you just tell them true
Cause they can't take the truth from you
So do what you gotta do.
Well they'll call you a hero or a traitor
But you'll find out that sooner or later
Nobody in this world is gonna do it for you
Do what you gotta do.
There ain't nobody in this world
That's gonna do it for you
Do what you gotta do.
