Ready To Go Lyrics

Mark Seymour Ready To Go

Vows have been broken
The truth has been spoken
At last I can see the light
My people have wandered
The land has been squandered
Is this the end in sight?
I've cursed and I've cried
And I'm twisted inside
And I can't keep my anguish at bay

*But I'm not ready to go

With the good book in hand
the missionary man
came preaching the word of the lord
So gentle and kind
With love on his mind
He said "If you live by you'll die by the sword"
Some chose to believe,
some chose to fight
Some vanished in the dead of the night

*But I'm not ready to go

Well I'm young and I'm strong
And I've lasted this long
And I know how to get through the day
There's nowhere to hide
I've still got my pride
And no one can take that away

*But I'm not ready to go
