THE OAK RIDGE BOYS
"I Wish We'd All Been Ready"

Life was filled with guns and war
And everyone got trampled on the floor
I wish we'd all been ready
Children died, the days were cold
A piece of bread could buy a bag of gold
I wish we'd all been ready
There's no time to change your mind
The Son has come and you've been left behind

Two men walking up a hill
One disappears and one's left standing still
I wish we'd all been ready
A man and wife lying in bed
She hears a noise and turns her head, he's gone
I wish we'd all be ready
There's no time to change your mind
The Son has come and you've been left behind
