Well, I've done it every way they say it oughta be done   But if I can't be me, well, it ain't much fun   So I bowed out, said, "I gotta go   Gotta crank it on up, I got to free my soul?   So it's back to my roots an' startin' today   I'm ready to rock in a country kinda way      Ready to rock all night long   Yeah, ready to rock 'til the cows come home   Well, it's the same ol' me, so don't be afraid   I'm just ready to rock in a country kinda way      This time I got a guitar that you gotta plug in   An' a stack of screamin' amps twisted way past ten   I'm havin' a ball an' to tell you the truth   I'm back to makin' music like I always do   I got Conway, Jones flowin' through my veins   An' I'm ready rock in a country kinda way      Ready to rock all night long   Yeah, ready to rock 'til the cows come home   Well, it's the same ol' me, so don't be afraid   I'm just ready to rock in a country kinda way      Hey, I don't think ol' Hank'd mind   If I done it this way   Ready to rock in a country kinda way      Ready to rock all night long   Yeah, I'm ready to rock 'til the cows come home   Hey, it's the same ol' me, so don't be afraid   I'm just a-ready to rock, yeah, I'm ready to rock   I'm ready to rock, rock, rock, rock   In a country kinda way      Now, ain't that pretty? 1, 2, 3, 4
