Be Ready Songtext
von Jimmy Cliff

Ohh, be ready
Ohh, rock steady

Be ready for today
And don′t delay
You'll be ready for tomorrow
If there come sorrow
′Cause the revolution's here
It is at your door and the Armageddon's here
It is on your floor

Ohh, be ready
Ohh, rock steady

You got to have your act together
You will go further
Are you in your stormy weather?
It will be dreader

Ohh, be ready (ready)
Ohh, I′m rock steady


Make hay while the sun shine
And don′t waste precious time
Well, you better make up your mind
And as I seek and you will find

Ohh, be ready
Ohh-oh-oh, rock steady

This is the final half hour
So they're struggling for power
And this is the final call
Going out to one and all

Ohh, be ready
Ohh, rock steady

Oh-oh-oh, be ready
Oh (rock around), rock steady

So you better build on what you got
′Cause you got a lot
And you build on what you say
For every brand new day

Ohh, be ready
