Trying to find a song called by some "waiting for the times to get better." . . . perhaps learned by one of our local folks from a live doc watson tape.

Text fragment:

It's been a too long time with No peace of mind And I'm ready for the times to get better . . . I must admit I've been racking my brains I've go to find a way out

READY FOR THE TIMES TO GET BETTER
Singer: Crystal Gayle
Writer: A. Reynolds

I've got to tell you I've been rackin' my brains
Hopin' to find a way out
I've had enough of this continual rain
Changes are comin' no doubt.

REFRAIN
It's been a too long time
With no peace of mind
And I'm Ready For The Times To Get Better.

You seem to want from me what I cannot give
I feel so lonesome at times
I have a dream that I wish I could live
It's burnin' holes in my mind.

REFRAIN (2X)
