Slippin' and a slidin' playin' Dominos
Leftin' and a rightin' ain't a crime you know
Well I gotta tell the story before it's time to go

But Are you ready for the country are you ready for me
Are you ready for the country ain't I a sight to see

[ steel + guitar ]

Talkin' to a preacher said God was on his side
Talkin' to a pusher they both were sellin' highs
Well I gotta tell the story boys I don't know the reason why

Are you ready for the country are you ready for me
Are you ready for the country ain't I a sight to see

[ steel + guitar waylon speaking (do it Rich)]

Are you ready for the country are you ready for me
Better get ready for the the country get ready for me
Are you ready for the country ready for me
Are you ready for the country ain't I a sight to see

Slipping and sliding
and playing domino
Lefting and then Righting,
it's not a crime you know.
You gotta 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.

because it's time to go?
