For the school house across town
The city park and playground
The places where kids' joys are found
I'm standing and waiting
With hopes the bus will show
I'm ready if I don't get to go
For the halls of higher learning
A decent way of earning
The good life for mankind
I'm no longer debating
I'm anxious to know
I'm ready if I don't get to go
I know the facts
And I know how to fight back
But fighting is for fools to hurt each other
But if is what I must be
I will stand like a tree
'Cause there's so much good and love for man to discover
I'm ready if I don't get to go
I'm ready 'cause of what I've been through
Maybe you should be ready too
I've been roughing and fighting
Toughing and tighting
Now open up the door, see what I'll do
I'm ready if I don't get to go
I've been laughed at and talked about
By those who claim to be friends
I've been criticized, disputed
But I refuse to give in
I'm ready if I don't get to go
I'm ready if I don't get to go
