Ready or Not
Rio Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey all the pretty ladies, get it down on the floor
We're gonna rock this club like never before

You and me rockin' down the line
We party non-stop, have a good time
All the booties swing, hot shawty's on fire
Fellas on the floor, raise your glasses for more
L.O.L. We're laughing out loud
S.O.S. For my hangover crowd
Hey doctor DJ drop it down low
We're the party shakers ready to go

Hey all the pretty ladies, get it down on the floor
We're gonna rock this club like never before
So ladies put your hands up, hands up
Touching the sky
Now put your hands up, hands up
Ready or not

Hey all you sexy shawties let's get ready tonight
I'm heatin' up the club let's have a good time
So ladies put your hands up, hands up
Touching the sky
Now put your hands up, hands up
Ready or not, let's go!

Oh
Oh
(Are you ready or not?)

Popping bottle sip champagne scenes
While others the girls go mad, have a Sex on the Beach
The party's hot, get ready to roll
They just gettin' loose, let it go blast the roof

L.O.L. We're laughing out loud
S.O.S. For my hangover crowd
Hey doctor DJ, drop it down low
We're the party shakers ready to go

Hey all the pretty ladies, get it down on the floor
We're gonna rock this club like never before
So ladies put your hands up, hands up
Touching the sky
Now put your hands up, hands up
Ready or not

Hey all you sexy shawties let's get ready tonight
I'm heatin' up the club let's have a good time

We gettin' lose you look so pretty
The bass to unfuzz my brain while these supermodels eased okay
We rolling deep baby, we don't need no sleep
Let's have one last drink tonight

Hey all the pretty ladies, get it down on the floor
We're gonna rock this club like never before
So ladies put your hands up, hands up

Hey all you sexy shawty's let's get ready tonight

So ladies put your hands up, hands up
Touching the sky




Now put your hands up, hands up

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Rio's song "Ready or Not" convey a vivid depiction of a lively and energetic party atmosphere. The verses encourage all the "pretty ladies" and "sexy shawties" to hit the dance floor and get ready to have a great time. The repetition of phrases like "get it down on the floor" and "rock this club like never before" sets the tone for a night of intense partying and enjoyment.


The lyrics also emphasize the vibe of the party, with references to swinging booties, hot shawties on fire, and fellas raising their glasses for more. The catchy chorus encourages everyone to put their hands up and get ready for a wild and fun-filled night. The mention of L.O.L. (laughing out loud) and S.O.S. (for my hangover crowd) adds a playful element to the song, suggesting a carefree and jovial atmosphere.


The imagery of popping bottles, sipping champagne, and having a "Sex on the Beach" drink further enhances the idea of a high-energy and indulgent party setting. The lyrics also highlight the role of the DJ in setting the mood with the line "Hey doctor DJ drop it down low," suggesting a seamless collaboration between the music and the partygoers' enjoyment.


Overall, the song captures the sense of excitement and anticipation that comes with a night out on the town, where people are ready to let loose, dance, and have a good time. The repeated exhortation to be ready or not signifies a call to action for everyone present to fully immerse themselves in the party experience and make the most of the night. The upbeat tempo and catchy chorus contribute to the overall party anthem feel of the song, inviting listeners to join in the celebration and get into the party spirit.
