[Verse 1]
Got to be there, got to be there
In the, in the morning
When she says hello to the world
Got to be there, got to be there
Bring her, bring her good times
And show her that she is my girl
Oh what a feeling there will be
The moment I know she loves me
But when I look in her eyes I realize
I need her sharing her world beside me

[Verse 2]
So I have got to be there
Got to be there in the morning
And welcome her into my world
And show her that she is my girl
When she says, "Hello world!"
I need her sharing the world beside me

[Verse 3]
That is why I have got to be there
Got to be there where love begins
And that is everywhere she goes
I have got to be there so she knows
That when she is with me, she is home, yeah

[Outro]
Got to be there, got to be there, got to be there
Got to be there, got to be there, got to be there
Got to be there, oh baby baby got to be there, got to be there
Got to be there, got to be there, to be there
Got to be there, oh got to be there, got to be there
Got to be there, got to be there, got to be there

Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson was born on August 29, 1958, in Gary, Indiana. Jackson began his career when he was seven years old as the lead singer of the Jackson 5, breaking into stardom in 1969 after signing into Motown. The Jackson 5’s first four singles all peaked at number one on the Billboard 100, and soon after Michael pursued a solo career.

His breakthrough fifth album, 1979’s Off The Wall produced four top ten hits (including “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough”) and sold 20 million copies, establishing him as a household name. The album was followed with 1982’s Thriller, which became the best selling album of all time, and was the first album to feature seven top 10 singles, including “Billie Jean” and “Beat It.”

In 1985, Michael contributed to the collaboration single “We Are The World”, which remains one of the best-selling singles of all time and raised nearly $65 million for famine relief.
