Get Ready

Daryl Hall · Other Songs - Daryl Hall

I never met a girl who makes me feel the way that you do

(it's alright)

Whenever I'm asked who makes my dreams real

I say that you do

(you're outta sight)

So fee fi fo fum



Look out baby 'cause here I come.

And I'm bringing you a love that's true so get ready

So get ready

I'm gonna try to make love to you so get ready

So get ready here I come.

I'm on my way.



If you wanna play hide and seek with love let me remind you

(it's alright)

The loving you're gonna miss and the time it takes to find you

(it's outta sight)

So fiddle-lee-dee fiddle-lee-dum



Look out baby 'cause here I come.

And I'm bringing you a love that's true so get ready

So get ready

I'm gonna try to make love to you so get ready

So get ready here I come.

I'm on my way.



All my friends shouldn't want me to I understand it

(be alright)

I hope I'll get to you before they do the way I planned it

(be outta sight)

So twiddle-dee-dee twiddle dee dum



Look out baby 'cause here I come.

And I'm bringing you a love that's true so get ready

So get ready

I'm gonna try to make love to you so get ready

So get ready here I come.

I'm on my way.

Get ready 'cause here I come, boy.

Get ready 'cause here I come, boy.

Get ready 'cause here I come, boy.

Get Ready - Daryl Hall

Daryl Hall's 'Get Ready' stands as a quintessential example of the smooth, soulful R&B and new wave sound that defined his career alongside John Oates. Released in the early 1980s, the track exemplifies the duo's signature blend of lush harmonies and a laid-back groove that became a staple of their discography. While often associated with their massive hits like 'You Make My Dreams,' 'Get Ready' showcases a slightly more mature and introspective side of their songwriting. The recording captures the era's transition from pure disco to a more polished, radio-friendly pop sound, utilizing rich instrumentation and Hall's distinctive, warm vocal delivery. It remains a significant piece in the catalog of Hall & Oates, reflecting their ability to craft timeless tracks that bridged the gap between rock and soul influences.
