I'm Ready
Size 9 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well, I'm ready, I'm willin', and I'm able to rock and roll all night
I'm ready, I'm willin', and I'm able to rock and roll all night
Come on, pretty baby, we gonna rock, we gonna roll until the broad daylight

Because I'm ready
And I'm able
I'm willin' and I'm able
So you better come and go with me
We gonna rock and roll till tomorrow `bout three

Talkin' on the phone is not my speed
Don't send me no letter `cause I can't read
Don't be long `cause I'll be gone
We gonna rock and roll all night long

`Cause I'm ready, I'm willin', and I'm able to rock and roll all night
I'm ready, I'm willin', and I'm able to rock and roll all night
Come on, pretty baby, we gonna rock, we gonna roll until tomorrow night

Talkin' on the phone is not my speed
Don't send me no letter `cause I can't read
Don't be long `cause I'll be gone
We gonna rock and roll all night long

`Cause I'm ready, I'm willin', and I'm able to rock and roll all night




I'm ready, I'm willin', and I'm able to rock and roll all night
Come on, pretty baby, we gonna rock, we gonna roll until tomorrow night

Banging tune! Close my 55 year old eyes & am back, car hired to club, got sorted!, so excited, teeth chattering, big shiver arrive at club, then at one with every soul in there, danced straight for 10 hours, drive home bleary eyed watching the sun rise! So happy to have all those memories.. Thank you Size 9, perfection....
