Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I am ready
I'm ready as anybody can be
I'm ready
Ready as anybody can be
I am ready for you
I hope you're ready for me
[Verse 2]
I got a axe handle pistol on a graveyard frame
Shootin' tombstone bullets, wearin' balls and chain
I'm drankin' TNT, I'm smokin' dynamite
I hope some screwball start a fight
[Verse 3]
Because I'm ready
I'm ready as anybody can be
I am ready for you
I hope you ready for me
[Verse 4]
All ya pretty little chicks with your pretty little hair
I know you feel like I ain't nowhere
But stop what you're doin' baby, come over here
I'll prove to ya baby, that I ain't no square
[Verse 5]
Because I'm ready
Ready as anybody can be
I am ready for you
I hope you're ready for me
[Verse 6]
Well alright
[Verse 7]
I been drankin' gin like never before
I feel so good that I want you to know
One more drink, I wish you would
It take a whole lotta lovin' to make me feel good
[Verse 8]
But I'm ready
I'm ready as anybody can be
I am ready for you
I hope you're ready for me
