Be Ready

Are you waiting for something to happen?

Are you expecting things to be done?

Are you ready for the long haul?

Or fading with the setting sun?

Do you have your lanterns ready, in case the darkness falls?

Or do you live in hope that,…she’ll be right on the night.

You believe that you will cope!

Chorus

Be ready, be ready, be ready for the night

Be ready, be ready, for it may be tonight

Vs 2

If you don’t do what needs to be done

Don’t ask me for any favours

You’ve got to do what you need to do

Don’t sell your soul or sign the papers

Do you have your lanterns ready, in case the darkness falls?

But I do know that you know, what you must be doing

If you want protection from the cold –           CH

Vs 3

Don’t be like the foolish people

Don’t be taken by surprise

Be on your guard, yes you be ready

Leave your light on all the night

Do you have your lanterns ready, in case the darkness falls?

Then you know for sure that,…she’ll be right on the night.

You know that you will cope!                        –           CH
