Lyrics for I'm Ready

I'm ready, ready as anybody can be I'm ready, ready as anybody can be I'm ready for you, I hope you're ready for me I got an axe handle pistol on a graveyard frame That shoot tombstone bullets wearin' balls and chain I'm drinkin' TNT, I'm smokin' dynamite I hope some screwball start a fight 'Cause I'm ready, ready as anybody can be I'm ready for you, I hope you're ready for me All you pretty little chicks with your pretty little hair I know you feel like I ain't nowhere But stop what your doin' baby come over here I'll prove to you baby that I ain't no square Because I'm ready, ready as anybody can be I'm ready for you, I hope you're ready for me I been drinkin' gin like never before I feel so good I want you to know One more drink I wish you would It takes a whole lotta lovin' to make me feel good 'Cause I'm ready, ready as anybody can be I'm ready for you, I hope you're ready for me
