Intro Verse 1:
She's gotta do what she's gotta do
And I've gotta like it or not
She's got dreams too big for this town
And she needs to give 'em a shot
Wherever they are.
Looks like I'm all ready to leave
And nothing left to pack
Ain't no room for me in that car
Even if she asked me to tag along
God I gotta be strong.
Chorus:
I'm at the startin' line of the rest of my life
As ready as I've ever been
Got the hunger and the stars in my eyes
The prize is mine to win
She's waitin' on my blessings 'fore she hits that open road
Baby get ready, (Oh, I'm ready) get set, don't go.
Verse 2:
Looks like things are fallen in place
Feels like they're fallen apart
I painted this big ol' smile on my face
To hide my broken heart
If only she knew
This is where you don't say what you want so bad to say
This is where I want to but I won't get in the way
Of her and her dreams
And she spreadin' her wings
I'm ready to fly
Chorus:
I'm at the startin' line of the rest of my life
As ready as I've ever been
Got the hunger and the stars in my eyes
The prize is mine to win
She's waitin' on my blessings 'fore she hits that open road
Baby get ready, get set, don't go.
Chorus:
I'm at the startin' line of the rest of my life
As ready as I've ever been
Got the hunger and the stars in my eyes
The prize is mine to win
She's waitin' on my blessings 'fore she hits that open road
Baby get ready, (Ohhh) get set, please don't go.
Don't go
Let me go now, I'm ready
Mmm Don't go
I'll be alright.
I'll be okay
Know that I'll be
Thinkin' of you
Each and every day...
