Текст Phil Ochs — 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 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 wanna cause no sorrow
Don’t wanna cause no pain
Oh I’m only gonna cause what I have to cause
Until this land is free of shame
Till this land is free of shame

So I’m 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
‘Twas a million here before we came,
Be a million when we’re gone, we’re gone
A million when we’re gone

So I’m 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 what happens now if we fail
What happens now if we fail

So I’m 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?
