Let's Straighten It Out
Sit yourself down and listen to me
Let me tell me you what's on my mind
When you went asking, I'll say everything's okay
Ooh, I knew you could tell I was lying
I've been tossing and turning in my sleep, baby
Sittin' around poutin' all day long
Now I don't expect you to understand
When I didn't even say what's wrong
But I'm ready to straighten it out
Let's straighten it out
Let's straighten it out, baby
Let's straighten it out
For the last few nights, honey, when we went to bed
I guess you could tell somethin' just wasn't right
When I turned my back to you and I covered my head
Oh, I didn't even say goodnight
Now it's not that I didn't want be bothered, baby
And honey, I showed it won't you to leave me alone
Instead of cryin' my eyes out, baby
You and me sugar been gettin' it on
Yeah
Let's straighten it out
Let's straighten it out
Let's straighten it out
Let's straighten it out
Oh, let's straighten it out
Ooh, let's straighten out
Baby, baby, let's straighten out
C'mon and, let's straighten it out
Oh, I'm sorry, baby
Let me tell me you what's on my mind
When you went asking, I'll say everything's okay
Ooh, I knew you could tell I was lying
I've been tossing and turning in my sleep, baby
Sittin' around poutin' all day long
Now I don't expect you to understand
When I didn't even say what's wrong
But I'm ready to straighten it out
Let's straighten it out
Let's straighten it out, baby
Let's straighten it out
For the last few nights, honey, when we went to bed
I guess you could tell somethin' just wasn't right
When I turned my back to you and I covered my head
Oh, I didn't even say goodnight
Now it's not that I didn't want be bothered, baby
And honey, I showed it won't you to leave me alone
Instead of cryin' my eyes out, baby
You and me sugar been gettin' it on
Yeah
Let's straighten it out
Let's straighten it out
Let's straighten it out
Let's straighten it out
Oh, let's straighten it out
Ooh, let's straighten out
Baby, baby, let's straighten out
C'mon and, let's straighten it out
Oh, I'm sorry, baby
