I'm Ready
Muddy Waters' Electric Desires: Unveiling the Raw Passion in 'I'm Ready'
Lyrics
I am ready, ready as anybody can be
I am prepared, fully prepared, more than anyone else
I am ready, ready as anybody can be
Reiterating readiness, emphasizing preparedness
I am ready for you, I hope you ready for me
Expressing preparedness for a relationship and anticipation of the other person being ready
I got an axe handle pistol on a graveyard frame
Describing an unconventional weapon, possibly symbolizing toughness or resilience
That shoot tombstone bullets, wearin' balls and chain
Highlighting the destructive nature of the bullets and referencing imprisonment
I'm drinkin' TNT, I'm smokin' dynamite
Metaphorically consuming powerful and dangerous substances, setting a rebellious tone
I hope some screwball start a fight
Expressing a desire for chaos or conflict, possibly as an outlet for energy
'Cause I'm ready, ready as anybody can be
Repeating readiness, underscoring the intensity of preparedness
I am ready for you, I hope you're ready for me
Reiterating preparedness for the other person in the relationship
All you pretty little chicks with your pretty little hair
Addressing attractive women, suggesting a dismissive attitude towards them
I know you feels like I ain't nowhere
Acknowledging a perception that he is not achieving much or going anywhere
But stop what you're doin', baby come over here
Encouraging a woman to approach, offering to prove his worth
I'll prove to you baby, that I ain't no square
Asserting that he is not conventional or boring
Because I'm ready, ready as anybody can be
Reiterating readiness, reinforcing his preparedness
I am ready for you, I hope you're ready for me
Reiterating preparedness for the other person in the relationship
I been drinkin' gin like never before
Describing heavy drinking of gin, suggesting a carefree or celebratory mood
I feel so good, I want you to know
Expressing a positive emotional state due to alcohol consumption
One more drink, I wish you would
Expressing a desire for more indulgence, possibly hinting at a need for excess
It takes a whole lotta lovin' to make me feel good
Stating that significant love or attention is required for him to feel good
'Cause I'm ready, ready as anybody can be
Reiterating readiness, emphasizing preparedness one more time
I am ready for you, I hope you're ready for me
Reiterating preparedness for the other person in the relationship
