I have an axe and pistol, my graveyard train
Shoot tombstone bullets wearing balls and chain
I'm drinking TNT, smoking dynamite
I hope some screwball start a fight
'Cause I'm ready, yeah, ready as anybody can be
Hey babe, listen
I'm ready for you, I hope you're ready for me
Oh, you pretty little chicks with your curly hair
I know that you feel that I ain't nowhere
Cause stop what you're doing and come down here
I'll prove to you mama, that I ain't no square
I'm ready, ready as anybody can be
Yeah
I'm ready for you, I hope you're ready for me
Come on, take it
I been drinking gin like never before
Feeling good, I want you to know
One more drink, I wish you would
Take a whole lot of loving to make me feel good
I'm ready, ready, yeah, ready as anybody can be
Yeah, I'm ready for you, I hope you're ready for me
I said, I'm ready for you, but I hope you're ready for me
Oh yeah, yeah
Oh yeah, yeah
