Song Lyrics

"Better You Get Ready"

by Ashley Cleveland
Album: Bus Named Desire

You can drink your broken heart to sleep, get a message that your soul's to keep,
Before you fall into a hole too deep or get a notion that you can't be beat, no,
Try to wipe out each and every mile, get twisted in you own good style,
You're not arrested, don't you go on trial,
You better get it on down that Nile.

Better you get ready,
Better you get ready,
Better you get ready on time.
Better you get ready,
Better you get ready,
Better you get ready on time.

You can shuck and jive your whole life through,
Go dancing, even lose your shoes,
Relax, have a joke or two,
What'll happen' ' You find someone new, yeah,
Talk softly when you need to pray,
It's not for me to really say,
I know you're gonna go your way,
Heaven knows I only wish you'd stay.

Better you get ready,
Better you get ready,
Better you get ready on time.
Better you get ready,
Better you get ready,
Better you get ready on time.

Oh, better you get ready,
Better you get ready,
Better you get ready on time.
Oh, better you get ready,
Better you get ready,
You get ready on time.

Oh.

Better you get ready,
Better you get ready,
You get ready,
Better you get ready.
