What Am I Gonna Do Lyrics

[Verse]
What am I gonna do when the sun goes down
And all the lights are low?
What am I gonna do when I recall the love we used to know?
I remember the happiness we knew
Darling, can't we make up soon?
'Cause I don't know what I'm gonna do
What am I gonna do on Wednesday night
When I used to call you on the phone?
What am I gonna say at the Record Hop when I show up alone?
They'll all ask me what's become of you
Darling, can't we make up soon?
'Cause I don't know what I'm gonna do
At the movies or at the football game
Please believe me, nothing's gonna be the same
So what am I gonna do on Saturday night
When everything goes wrong?
How am I gonna feel when the radio plays our favorite song?
I'm so lonely, just like Mr. Blue
Darling, can't we make up soon?
'Cause I don't know what I'm gonna do
I don't know what I'm gonna do
I don't know what I'm gonna do

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
