Lyrics of
Rehab

Rehab was written by Amy Winehouse and is an autobiographical reflection of her reluctance to attend a drug and alcohol rehabilitation centre. It was inspired by her former manager attempting to convince her to get help. The song became extremely popular and received critical acclaim for its production and Winehouses powerful vocal ethic. It won three Grammy Awards in 2008, including Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best Female Pop Vocal ... Performance. See more [+]

They try to make me go to rehab, I say no no no
Yes, I've been black but when I come back you'll know, know, know
I ain't got the time and if my daddy thinks I'm fine
He's tried to make me go to rehab, I won't go go go

I'd rather be at home with Ray
I ain't got seventy days
Cos there's nothing, there's nothing you can't teach me
That I can't learn from Mr Hathaway
I didn't get a lot in class
But I know it don't come in a shot glass

They try to make me go to rehab, I say no no no
Yes, I've been black but when I come back you'll know, know, know
I ain't got the time and if my daddy thinks I'm fine
He's tried to make me go to rehab, I won't go go go

The man said "Why do you think you here?"
I said "I got no idea
I'm gonna, I'm gonna lose my baby
So I always keep a bottle near"
He said "I just think you're depressed"
This me "Yeah, baby. And the rest"

They try to make me go to rehab, I say no no no
Yes, I've been black but when I come back you'll know, know, know

I don't ever want to drink again
I just, ooh I just need a friend
I'm not gonna spend ten weeks
And have everyone think I'm on the mend
And it's not just my pride
It's just 'til these tears have dried

They try to make me go to rehab, I say no no no
Yes, I've been black but when I come back you'll know, know, know
I ain't got the time and if my daddy thinks I'm fine
He's tried to make me go to rehab, I won't go go go
