Lyrics
I heard Susie and Sadie used to sit by the sea
tannin’ their bodies while they sipped on their tea
I don’t understand how it happened so fast
I wasn’t ready for action
wasn’t ready to crash
the day after next I was soothing my soul
I had slipped through the cracks
I was in from the cold
she only knew what had happened to me
I wasn’t ready to run
I wasn’t willin’ to hide
are you ready, to take me to the top
are you ready, I won’t quit I won’t stop
are you ready, won’t you listen to me
are you ready, where would you rather be
now on my own I can’t believe what I’d seen
Susie was dancing, Sadie followed her lead
proceeded to wonder if she knew where I’d been
the look in their eyes said they liked my surprise
are you ready, to take me to the top
are you ready, I won’t quit I won’t stop
are you ready, won’t you listen to me
are you ready, where would you rather be
ready or not (4x)
take what I got (4x)
your reckless heart
your one track mind
heard the gear box jammin’
and the steel belts rollin’
and maybe it’s time I thought this through
and got back down and got with you again
are you ready
are you ready
I used to sit on my sofa and watch my tv
the people I saw well they were livin’ my dream
I don’t understand how it happened so fast
so put on your seatbelt and throw out your past
the next thing you know it you’ll be kissin’ my
Are You Ready by Black Stone
