Hurricane Ruth - Far from the Cradle Lyrics

When this world has got you twisted
And you think you wanna quit
Just hold on to me tighter
Don't you lose your grip
Let's live it up now, baby
I know you wanna stay
We're far from the cradle
But, we ain't ready for the grave

One day the reaper
He'll be comin' round to call
But, before he gets here
Let's have ourselves a ball!!
Let's live it up now, baby
Don't wait for judgement day
You know we're far from the cradle
But, we ain't ready for the grave

That big wheel in the sky
It don't stop turnin'
So, I keep my candle
With both ends burnin'
Let's get down and dirty, baby
It's time to misbehave
You know we're far from the cradle
But, we ain't ready for the grave
Yeah, we're far from the cradle!
But, we ain't ready for the grave
