Slippin' and slidin' and playing domino
Lefting and then righting, it's not a crime, you know
You got to tell your story, boy
Before it's time to go

Are you ready for the country?
Because it's time to go
Are you ready for the country?
Because it's time to go

I was talkin' to the preacher, said God was on my side
Then I ran into the hangman, he said, "It's time to die"
You gotta tell your story, boy
You know the reason why

Are you ready for the country?
Because it's time to go
Are you ready for the country?
Because it's time to go

I was talkin' to the preacher, said God was on my side
Then I ran into the hangman, he said, "It's time to die"
You gotta tell your story, boy

Are you ready for the country?

Are you ready for the country?
Because it's time to go
