(Mary Chapin CarpenterGary Burr)



Whenever you're ready

I've got the car and the engine running

It's such a bore when you know what's coming all the time

Whenever you're ready

To slam the door 'til the hinges fly

Trace an arc cross the big blue sky

It's always gonna be hard

To take things a little to far



Na na na na, c'mon baby

Na na na na, yeah it's crazy

Na na na na, I'll be waiting whenever you're ready

Whenever you're ready



Whenever you're ready

To light a match and to burn some bridges

Try to dance on a narrow ledge that's way too high

Whenever you're ready

To give it up or to just give in

The more you lose hell the more you win

In spite of all of your plans

It's always been out of your hands



Na na na na, c'mon baby

Na na na na, yeah it's crazy

Na na na na, I'll be waiting whenever you're ready

Whenever you're ready



It's always gonna be hard to take things a little too far



Na na na na, c'mon baby

Na na na na, yeah it's crazy

Na na na na, I'll be waiting whenever you're ready

Whenever you're ready
