For many of us who love to sing to karaoke music, this is one song you will not want to miss. I have re-written the lyrics of Jim Reeve's song, "He'll have to go" to give it a more contemporary Malaysian feel. The karaoke music is at the bottom of the screen, but you don't need to follow the original lyrics which is a cover version by the King of Rock 'n' Roll, Elvis Presley. Once you click "play", then scroll up to sing to my lyrics. Happy singing!!
Don't treat the money
That you have, like it's your own
For it's ours, or don't you know
It's not a loan
We tell the people, you are bribing them
They ought to know
Or shall you give up, or shall we vote
You'll have to go
CHORUS
You can say the words we want to hear
They don't really mean a thing
For once the election is over
You're back to the same old thing
Where are the promises you made
For Batang Ai
Till today, nothing is done
The people just sigh
They ask each day
"Why did we vote the BN blokes?
Nothing has changed
We are still broke
He'll have to go"
[Interlude]
CHORUS
You can say the words we want to hear
They don't really mean a thing
For once the election is over
You're back to the same old thing
Making promises, you know you'll never keep
For if you had, then you wouldn't be in such deep shit
So stop this game, and just resign
Your time is due
Or we'll make a choice, we'll vote you out
You'll have to go [Repeat 2x]
This is classic!!! Well-written, jives with the tune and painfully true! Thanks for sharing.
