Ready On the Firing Line

Ready on the left, ready on the right, ready on the firing line

In this world you’ve got to be ready
Got to have everything just so
You’ve got to be ready just to hang around a
And you’ve got to be ready to go
You’ve got to be ready just to hear the word
You must be ready just to read the sign
You must be ready on the left, ready on the right, ready on the firing line

Sometimes when you fell all so stone alone
You can’t even find a place to sit down
It don’t make no never mind just how hard you look
There ain’t a true friend to be found
Get hip, a thing or two will put a buzz on you
It’ll help you not to waste your time
Just be ready on the left, ready on the right, ready on the firing line

When I think of sweet Jesus
Just hanging up on Calvary’s tree
He was just trying to keep on truckin
But they would not let him be
Sometimes I’m thinkin that it ain’t no use
It just ain’t no use in tryin
