Ladies and gentlemen, "Got To Be There"
[Verse 1: Michael Jackson & (The Jacksons)]
Got to be there (Got to be there)
Got to be there in the morning
When she says hello to the world (Hello, hello)
Got to be there (Got to be there), got to be there
Bring her good times
And show her that she's my girl
Oh, what a feeling there'll be
The moment I know she loves me, yeah
'Cause when I look in her eyes I realize
I need her sharing her world beside, beside me, yeah, yeah
[Verse 2: Michael Jackson & (The Jacksons)]
So I've got to be there (Got to be there)
Got to be there where love begins
That's why I've got to be there
Got to be there where love begins
And that's everywhere she goes (She goes)
I've got to be there so she knows (She knows)
That when she's with me (She's home, she's home), she's home, yeah
(Home, she's home) Oh, right on
(Home, she's home) Nanananana
[Outro: Michael Jackson & (The Jacksons)]
(I got to be there) Got to be there, got to be there
(Got to be there) Got to be there, woo
(Ah, baby baby)
My love, can you feel it?
Clap your hands, woo
(Got to be there, got to be there, got to be there, got to be there)
Around the corner
(Got to be there, got to be there, got to be there, got to be there)
At your door, at your crib, I'll be there
Thank you
