Let's Straighten It Out

Sit yourself down, talk to me, yeah
Tell me what's on your mind, yeah
Ooh, don't keep on tellin' me everything's okay
'Cause if it was, then you wouldn't be cryin'
You been tossin', and turnin' in your sleep lately
Sittin' 'round poutin' all day long
The how in the world do you expect me to understand, babe
When I don't even know what's wrong?

Let's straighten it out
Let's straighten it out
Let's straighten it out
Oh, we could always straighten it out

For the last five nights, honey, when we went to bed, yeah
Oh, I could tell somethin' just ain't right
Oh, when you turned your back on me, and you covered your head
Then you didn't even say goodnight
Now if you're tired, and you don't wanna be bothered, babe
Just say the word, and I'll leave you alone, yeah
Instead of layin' out, cryin' your eyes out, babe
You and me, should be getting it on, yeah

Let's straighten it out, baby
Let's straighten it out, baby, babe
Let's straighten it out
Oh, won't you talk to me?
We could always (straighten it out) straighten it out

Now, how in the hell do you expect me to understand
When I don't even know what's wrong? Yeah
Come on, lay in my arms, baby
And let's straighten it out

Don't keep on telling me
Everything's okay
'Cause if it was, then you wouldn't be crying
Let's straighten it out, straighten it out
Straighten it out, straighten it out, straighten it, babe
