Get Ready, Get Set, Don't Go

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
Whatever 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

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
Before she hits that open road
But baby get ready, oh I'm ready, get set, don't go

Looks like things are fallin' in place
Feels like they're fallin' apart
I painted this big old 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 spreadin' her wings

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
Before she hits that open road
But baby get ready, get set, don't go

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
Before she hits that open road
But baby get ready, get set, please don't go

Don't go, don't go now
Mmm don't go
I'll be all right, I'll be ok
[Incomprehensible]
Thinking of you each and every day
She's gotta do what she's gotta do
