Let's Straighten It Out - O.V. Wright

Sit yourself down, girl, and talk to me

Tell me what’s on your mind

Don’t keep on telling me everything’s ok

'Cause if you were then you wouldn’t be crying

You’ve been tossing and turning in your sleep lately

Sitting around pouting all day long

How in the world do you expect for me to understand, baby

When I don’t even know what’s wrong?

Let’s straighten it out, baby

Let’s straighten it out

Baby, baby, let’s straighten it out

We can always straighten it out

For the last five nights honey, when we went to bed

Whoah, I could tell something just wasn’t right

When you turn your back to me and cover your head

Or you didn’t even say goodnight

Now if you you’re tired and don’t want to be bothered, baby

Say the word and I’ll leave you alone

Instead of lying there crying your eyes out honey

You and me ought to be getting it on

Let’s straighten it out, baby

Let’s straighten it out

We can always straighten it out

You know we can straighten it out

How in the world do you expect for me to understand you, baby

When I don’t even know what’s wrong?

But I believe we can straighten it out

Come here and lay in my arms and let me straiten it out

Talk to me, whisper to me straighten it out baby
