The Impressions - I'm Gettin Ready lyrics

Some people wonder why they never see Me with any girl, alone, and they say Here he comes he's the one He should be out having fun There's surely some girl Who'll like him some way But what they don't know For they come and they go And with true love you must be prepared And I'm gettin' ready (he's gettin' ready) I'm gettin' ready (he's gettin' ready) I wish to be everything For the girl of my dream And when she comes She'll know what I mean And say boy I'm ready Truly I know I got to get ready (he's gettin' ready) I used to be like all the others constantly Flirting with any girl with any name But like treason finally, it all caught back up with me And I'd never know there'd be such pain I'd fallen head over heels The thought of her gave me chills And as she turned me down It was like falling rain I just wasn't ready (he wasn't ready) I wasn't ready (he wasn't ready) I wish to be everything For the girl of my dreams And when she comes She'll know what I mean And say boy you ready Truly I know, I've got to get ready (he's gettin' ready) Woohoo better get ready (he's gettin' ready) Sure I know, I got to get ready (he's gettin' ready) Woohoo
