Janis Ian - Get Ready To Roll Lyrics
Play it low in the pocket Something's just gotta break You've been waiting so long for success It's a shame it's gonna come too late Baby, fly like a rocket Shoot it out in stages from the mother ship It's too bad you gotta lose what you had And when you cruise You gotta shoot it from the hip Or you give 'em all the slip And it's too bad Hear they got you shootin' with a crooked cue Hmm, somebody really got it in for you When the night runs down all over town And everybody's lost control Get ready to roll Get ready to roll Play it high on the hip Something's just got to give Hold that .38 ready 'til she really looks steady Then just let her rip Put some powder in your eyes Just before that contact's made How it must hurt to pervert What the curtain can't hide From that fire in your eyes But is it really a surprise? And it's too bad Hear they got you shootin' with a crooked cue Hmm, somebody really got it in for you When the night runs down all over town And everybody's lost control Get ready to roll Get ready to roll
