Ready for the End of the World

(Clint Daniels, Tony Martin)



I know the end is near

I've seen the warning signs

Been preparin' myself,

Layin' in supplies

I bought a case of Jack,

A box set of Merle

I'm gettin' ready,

Ready for the end of the world.



Chorus:

I'm gettin' ready for the end to come

That final hour it all comes undone

And she drops the bomb

And says she ain't my girl

I'm gettin' ready,

Ready for the end of the world.



--- Instrumental ---



My neon shelter waits,

Where I can go to hide

While the memories burn,

I'll be safe inside

With the honky-tonk few,

Bracin' for the worst

I'm gettin' ready,

Ready for the end of the world.



Chorus:

I'm gettin' ready for the end to come

That final hour it all comes undone

She drops the bomb

And says she ain't my girl

I'm gettin' ready,

Ready for the end of the world.



Yeah, I'll be ready

Ready for the end of the world...
