TITO JACKSON lyrics - I Gotta Play

(Tito A. Jackson)



Since I was a young boy

I never messed with toys

Good music is what I enjoyed

Papa Joe often looked me to

Sittin' round the house

Making guitar's groove



That's why I

That's why I play the blues



Grabbed myself a guitar

And started playing live

In a group with my brothers

The Jackson 5

Gave music to my boys 3T

It's cool

But nothing makes me happier

Than grooving blues



That's why I say

I gotta play the blues



We played music all over the

North, East and South

Way before ABC was even thought about

Music was caused in different direction

That's what I remember to my best recollection



But today

I gotta play the blues



Wanna be a little different

Do something my brothers dare to do
