George Jones
I’m Not Ready Yet
[Verse]
I've always said someday I was gonna leave you
Some April when all the land is wet
Some spring, summer, fall or maybe winter
I'll leave someday, but I'm not ready yet

[Chorus]
I know I should've left the day I knew your love was dying
But I passed up every date that I ever set
But I know I'll leave when my heart tells me it's ready
But I'm still around, 'cause I'm not ready yet

[Bridge]
You know, I must have left you a hundred times
But you don't know that
'Cause I was afraid you'd laugh
When you found out just how far I'd get
But you didn't, and you don't
I know you ain't gonna ever know
And someday I'll go, but I'm not ready yet

[Chorus]
I know I should've left the day I knew your love was dying
But I passed up every date this old boy ever set
But I know I'll leave when my heart tells me, "George, we're ready"
But I'm still around, 'cause I'm not ready yet
[Refrain]
I'm still around, 'cause I'm not ready yet
