Lyrics:

(Ooh, Im Ready, Yes Im Ready)

for The Schoolhouse Across Town
the City Park And Playground
the Places Where Kids Joys Are Found
im Standing And Waiting (Yes, Im Waiting)
with Hopes The Bus Will Show (Yes, Im Waiting)
im Ready If I Dont Get To Go (Yes, Im Ready)

for The Halls Of High Learning
a Decent Way Of Earning
the Good Life For Mankind
im No Longer Debating
im Anxious To Know
im Ready If I Dont Get To Go (Yes, Im Ready)

i Know The Facts
and I Know How To Fight Back
but Fighting Is For Fools To Hurt Each Other
but If This Is What I Must Be
i Will Stand Like A Tree
cause Theres So Much Good And Love
for Man To Discover, To Discover (To Discover)
oh, Im Ready If I Dont Get To Go (Yes, Im Ready)

im Ready Cause Of What I Been Through
maybe You Should Be Ready Too
ive Been Roughing And Fightin
toughing And Tightenin
now Open Up The Door (Open Up The Door)
see What Ill Do
oh, Im Ready (Yes, Im Ready) If I Dont Get To Go (Yes, Im Ready)

ive Been Laughed At And Talked About
by Those Who Claim To Be Friends
ive Been Criticized, Disputed
but I Refuse To Give In
oh, Im Ready (Yes, Im Ready) If I Dont Get To Go (Yes, Im Ready)
im Ready (Yes, Im Ready) If I Dont Get To Go (Yes, Im Ready)
yes, Im Ready (Yes, Im Ready) If I Dont Get To Go (Yes, Im Ready)
yes, Im Ready If I Dont Get To Go
oh Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
oh Yeah

oh, Im Ready (Yes, Im Ready) If I Dont Get To Go (Yes, Im Ready)
im Ready (Yes, Im Ready) If I Dont Get To Go (Yes, Im Ready)
yes, Im Ready If I Dont Get To Go (Yes, Im Ready)
im Ready If I Dont Get To Go (Yes, Im Ready)
yes, Im Ready If I Dont Get To Go (Yes, Im Ready)
oh Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah (Yes, Im Ready)
oh, Im Ready If I Dont Get To Go (Yes, Im Ready)
