Rehab by Amy Winehouse

Artist: Amy Winehouse

Genre: Pop

Length: 3:33

Released: 2006

“Rehab,” the leading single off of Back To Black, arguably put Winehouse on the international map. The song is a hauntingly ironic, upbeat tune where Winehouse refuses to go to a rehabilitation centre to help manage her drug and alcohol problem. Despite her resistance against any form of professional rehabilitation, she ended up checking into a rehab centre in early 2008, leaving just in time for the 50th Grammy Awards where she would take home a Grammy for Song Of The Year, Female Pop Vocal...

Rehab lyrics

They tried to make me go to rehab
But I said 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
They tried to make me go to rehab
But I won't go, go, go
I'd rather be at home with Ray
I ain't got seventy days
'Cause there's nothing
There's nothing you can 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 tried to make me go to rehab
But I said 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
They tried to make me go to rehab
But I won't go, go, go
The man said, "Why 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 tried to make me go to rehab
But I said 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 tried to make me go to rehab
But I said 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
They try to make me go to Rehab
But I won't go, go, go!
