Val Doonican - Val Doonican - The Very Best Of

I'm Gonna Get There Somehow

I'm gonna get there somehow
I'm ringing up to say
That I'm gonna get there somehow
I'm leaving right away

I could be there in a minute if I had an aeroplane
There'd be just nothing in it if I hadn't missed the train
I asked a bus conductor, he said, "Go which way you like"
There's a 13, 14, 15B, but they've all come out on strike

But I'm gonna get there somehow (somehow)
I'm ringing up to say
That I'm gonna get there somehow (somehow)
I'm leaving right away

I could hop into a taxi, but I haven't got the fare
If I hitchhike on a lorry, but it mightn't go past there
Would you send my jalopy? It's no good using that
I could pedal on my pushbike, but the tires are too darned flat

But I'm gonna get there somehow (somehow)
I'm ringing up to say
That I'm gonna get there somehow (somehow)
I'm leaving right away

I could jump on my toboggan, but there isn't any snow
And when I try my roller skates, the doggone wheels won't go
I suppose I could start walking, but my shoes are worn right through
My socks are full of great big holes, what the heck am I gonna do

But I'm gonna get there somehow (somehow)
I'm ringing up to say
That I'm gonna get there somehow (somehow)
I'm leaving right away

Yes, I'm gonna get there somehow
If I crawl round on my knees
If I don't get there tomorrow
Come looking for me please
