這首歌曲由Motown的才子Smokey Robinson作詞作曲，最早是由The Temptations在1966年推出的，最高名次升到29名，四年以後(1970)，Rare Earth翻唱了這首歌曲，節奏加重了許多，改成搖滾的調子，直衝排行榜第四名，當時的排行榜狀況是這樣的：

THE TOP FIVE：(Week of June 13, 1970)
1. The Long and Winding Road/ For You Blue - Beatles
2. Which Way You Goin' Billy? - Poppy Family
3. Everything Is Beautiful - Ray Stevens
4. Get Ready - Rare Earth
5. Love on a Two Way Street - Moments

各位覺得擋在前面的那幾首歌曲有道理嗎?

Never met a girl could make me feel the way that you do.
(You're all right).
Whenever I'm asked what makes-a my dreams real, I tell em you do.
(You're outta sight).
Well tweedle dee, tweedle dum, look out baby 'cause here I come.
(Aaahh) Bringin' you a love that's true, Get ready, get ready
(Aaahh) Stop makin' love to you, Get ready, get ready.
(Aaahh) Get ready, cause here I come (on my way)
You wanna play hide and seek with love, let me remind ya.
(You're all right).
Lovin' you're gonna miss, and the time it takes to find ya.
(You're outta sight).
Fe Fi Fo Fo Fum, Look out baby now here I come.
(Aaahh) Bringin' you a love that's true, Get ready, get ready
(Aaahh) Stop makin' love to you, Get ready, get ready.
(Aaahh) Get ready, cause here I come (on my way)
If all my friends shouldn't want me to, I think I'll understand
(You're alright)
Hope I get to you before they do cause, that's how I planned it.
(You're outta sight)
Well tweedle dee, tweedle dum, look out baby 'cause here I come.
(Aaahh) Bringin' you a love that's true, Get ready, get ready
(Aaahh) Stop makin' love to you, Get ready, get ready.
(Aaahh) Get ready, cause here I come (on my way)
