Sir Thomas Jones Woodward, KBE, OBE (born 7 June 1940), best known by his stage name, Tom Jones is a Welsh pop singer particularly noted for his powerful voice. He was born in Treforest, near Pontypridd in South Wales. He rose to fame in the mid-1960s, with an exuberant live act which included wearing tight breeches and billowing shirts, in an Edwardian style popular amongst his peers at the time. He was known for his overt sexuality, before this was as common as it became in subsequent years. In 1963 he became the frontman for Tommy Scott and the Senators, a local beat group.

Are You Gonna Go My Way Lyrics

Tom Jones

Words and music by Lenny Kravitz and Craig Ross

Hey Robbie are you ready for this - I’m always ready Tom, You know that

I think you were born ready - Ha ha, Come On

I was born long ago

I’m the chosen, I’m the one

I have come to save the day

And I won’t leave until I’m done

And that is why you got to try

You got to breathe and have some fun

Though I’m not paid, I play this game

And I won’t stop until I’m done

But what I really want to know is…

Are you gonna go my way?

And I got to, got to know

I don’t know why we always cry

We must leave and get undone

We have to change and rearrange

And turn this planet back to one

So tell me why, we got to die

And kill each other one by one

We’ve got to love and rub-a-dub

We’ve got to dance and fall in love

But what I really want to know is…

Are you gonna go my way?

And I’ve got to, got to know

Is that you telling it like it is, Yeah, exactly

Yeah, yeah Uh huh

Yeah Aw, play the Guitar, Son

C’mon

Whooh, Yeah, Whooh, Yeah, Whooh, Yeah, Whooh, Yeah

What I really want to know is

Are you gonna go my way?

And I got to, got to know

I got to know
