Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
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?
[Instrumental]
Talkin' to a preacher, said God was on his side
Talkin' to a pusher, they both were sellin' highs
Well, they gotta tell the story, boys
I don't know the reason why
[Chorus]
Are you ready for the country?
Are you ready for me? (Woo)
Are you ready for the country?
Ain't I a sight to see?
[Instrumental]
Are you ready for the country?
Are you ready for me?
Better get ready for 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?
