This is a Muddy Waters Tune:The first verse is:I got an axe-handle pistol with a graveyard frameshootin' tombstone bullets, wearin' ball and chainI'm drinkin TNT, I'm smokin dynamiteI hope some schoolboy'll start a fight......I'm ReadyAn old blues song; I'm not sure who wrote it, but this version isperformed by Albert KingI'm ready, ready as anybody can beI'm ready, ready as anybody can beNow I'm ready for you,I hope you're ready for me.I got an axe-hounds face made on a graveyard frameShootin' tombstone bullets, wearin' ball and chainI'm drinkin' TNT, smokin' dynamiteI hope some screwball...start a fightI'm ready, ready as anybody can beNow I'm ready for you,I hope you're ready for me.All you pretty little chicks with your pretty little hair,I know you think that I ain't nowhereBut stop what your doin' an' look over here,I'll prove to ya, baby, that I ain't no squareI'm ready, ready as anybody can beNow I'm ready for you,I hope you're ready for me.I been drinkin' gin like never beforeI feel so good, babe, I want you to knowOne more drink, and I wish you wouldI takes a whole lotta lovin' to make me feel good, causeI'm ready, ready as anybody can beNow I'm ready for you,I hope you're ready for me.Transcribed by Rich Kulawiec, rsk@ecn.purdue.edu
