"We Gotta Get Out of This Place", occasionally written "We've Gotta Get Out of This Place", is a rock song written by American songwriters #BarryMann and #CynthiaWeil and recorded as a 1965 hit single by English band #theAnimals. It has become an iconic song of its type and was immensely popular with #UnitedStatesArmedForces #GIs during the #VietnamWar. In 2004, it was ranked number 233 on #RollingStone's "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time" list.
