Lord, I'm Ready To Go...

Lord, I'm Ready To Go...

A Poem by byronabelband

(E)WELL THERES NO ONE TO TRUST AND THERES NO WHERE TO GO
ALONE IN A MOTEL ROOM, AND THE CLOCK IS TURNING SLOW
(A)MY WOMAN CALLED THE COPS AGAIN, IM FEELING PRETTY LOW
(E)ANYTIME YOUR READY FOR ME, LORD I WANNA GO
COZ THIS (B7)FEELING OF DESPAIR, IS (A)MORE THAN
I CAN BARE, LORD IM READY TO (E)GO...

I GOT PEOPLE LOOKING FOR ME UP AND DOWN THE COAST
IM LIVING OFF THE GRID AND IM FEELING LIKE IM A GHOST
I REMEMBER THAT OLE FAMILY LOVE, THAT I MISS THE MOST
PARANOIA'S CREEPING IN, SO I GUESS ITS TIME TO GO
AND THIS FEELING OF DESPAIR, IS MORE THAN
I CAN BARE, LORD IM READY TO GO...

MY EYES ARE ALWAYS WATCHING WHEN IM SINGING AT MY SHOW
MY KEYES ARE ALWAYS IN MY HAND IN CASE I HAVE TO GO
LIVING AS AN OUTLAW, THERES THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW
YOU NEVER TRUST NO ONE AND THERES VERY LITTLE HOPE
AND THIS FEELING OF DESPAIR, IS MORE THAN
I CAN BARE, LORD IM READY TO GO...

FEELING LIKE A CRIMINAL, IT HAS A COST OF WOE
PEOPLE LOVE TO HEAR MY STORY, THEN THEY WANNA GO
IM JUST ANOTHER BOY WHOS LOST ON THAT HIGHWAY ROAD
ILL BLUES YOU UP, ILL SING YOU HOME WITH SONG THAT I WROTE
AND THIS FEELING OF DESPAIR, IS MORE THAN
I CAN BARE, LORD IM READY TO GO...
