Not Ready To Make Nice Lyrics By Dixie Chicks

    produced by rick rubin

    forgive sounds good
    forget i’m not sure i could
    they say time heals everything
    but i’m still waiting

    i’m through with doubt
    there’s nothin’ left for me to figure out
    i’ve paid a price
    and i’ll keep payin’

    i’m not ready to make nice
    i’m not ready to back down
    i’m still mad as hell and i don’t have time
    to go ’round and ’round and ’round
    it’s too late to make it right
    i probably wouldn’t if i could
    ’cause i’m mad as hell can’t bring myself
    to do what it is you think i should

    i know you’ve said
    can’t you just get over it
    it turned my whole world around
    and i kinda like it

    i made my bed and i sleep like a baby
    with no regrets and i don’t mind sayin’
    it’s a sad sad story when a mother will teach her
    daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger
    and how in the world can the words that i said
    send somebody so over the edge
    that they’d write me a letter sayin’ that i better
    shut up and sing or my life will be over

    i’m not ready to make nice
    i’m not ready to back down
    i’m still mad as hell and i don’t have time
    to go ’round and ’round and ’round
    it’s too late to make it right
    i probably wouldn’t if i could
    ’cause i’m mad as hell can’t bring myself
    to do what it is you think i should
    i’m not ready to make nice
    i’m not ready to back down
    i’m still mad as hell and i don’t have time
    to go ’round and ’round and ’round
    it’s too late to make it right
    i probably wouldn’t if i could
    ’cause i’m mad as hell can’t bring myself
    to do what it is you think i should
    what it is you think i should

    forgive sounds good
    forget i’m not sure i could
    they say time heals everything
    but i’m still waiting
