"Wicked Game" by Chris Isaak (and GONNA as a slang expression) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcb8XIbgbDA "gonna" = "going to" [Note: the slang word "gonna" is a change for the phrase "going to". The phrase is sometimes changed to a sound that can be spoken just a little faster.

One can learn to speak English that way, but it is not recommended that one do so. For the purposes of the study of a song, it is okay to use the phrase, but it is not acceptable to use "gonna" in written communication. Since popular singers are not limiting themselves to grammatically correct English, such slang expressions are often seen. . . "Wicked Game" by Chris Isaak . .
