Text: Ringo Starr. Liverpool 8. R U Ready?.

Radio static
Are you ready to cross over, are you ready to let go?
To face the final curtain
In the land of I Don't Know
Jesus was a wise man
and everyone's a Saint
Are you ready to cross over, are you ready?

You can read the good and bad books
Read them fast or slow
But is it fact or fiction
There's just one way to know
Buddha was dancing, underneath the bodhi tree

He was ready to cross over, he was ready
So why hold on, hold on
It's good that you believe, but it's better if you don't
So hold on, hold on
Someone's there to catch you, when you're ready to let go
I was sitting by the Ganges
Looking for another way
But all roads lead to Heaven
No matter what, they say
Krishna was a good man
Why was he so blue?

He was ready to cross over, he was ready
So why hold on, hold on
It's good that you believe, but it's better if you know
So hold on, hold on

Someone's there to catch you, when you're ready to let go
Play me to Heaven..
Are you ready to cross over, are you ready to let go?
To face the final curtain
In the land of I Don't Know
Every one can get there
Cuz we all have a soul
Are you ready to cross over, are you ready??
So why hold on, hold on
It's good that you believe, but it's better if you know
So hold on, hold on
Someone's there to catch you when you're ready to let go.
Someone's there to catch you when you're ready to let go.
Someone's there to catch you when you're ready....
To let go.
That's the real thing there, isn't it?
