[Intro]
Ah, ah (Oh, oh)
Ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah (So, so hard, girl)
Ah, ah (I gotta do)

[Verse 1]
I've been feeling lately
Like being single or just alone
To get into myself (I gotta do)
Love ain't easy, making me crazy
Games that we play
Sometimes the rules have to change

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna treat her cruel
But I like honesty
So what am I gonna do?

[Chorus]
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
[Post-Chorus]
Ah, ah
Ah, ah (Be apart, baby)
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah (Ooh ooh)
Ah, ah
I gotta

[Verse 2]
Any good relationships 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

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna treat her cruel
But I like honesty, baby
So what am I gonna do?

[Chorus]
Oh, I've gotta 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
[Bridge]
Listen, baby, hoo
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?)
Hoo, hoo
Do, do, do, do, do, do
(Do what I gotta do) Do, do
And I don't wanna see you cry, baby
But what am I gonna do?

[Chorus]
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)
And 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)
I don't wanna see you cry, baby
But you know that it's driving me crazy
Do what I gotta do
And break her heart (Hoo)
And though I love the girl I know
That the best thing is for us to be apart
