Etta James - Let's Straighten It Out lyrics

Everybody's got to straighten out somethings, sometime I don't care how old you are or how young you are But I want you to think about the last time That you heard somebody say, "Let's straighten it out" And I'll bet it was a man that said it, why? Because most of the time it's a man Who makes it crooked in the first place You see, men have a tendency to take women for granted But I believe, a woman feels things deeper than a man And I believe, that a woman loves stronger than a man Sit yourself down and talk to me Tell me what's on your mind Don't you keep on telling me everything's okay 'Cause if it was, you wouldn't be crying You've been tossin' and turnin' in your sleep lately, babe Sittin' around poutin' all day long How in the hell do you expect me to understand? When I don't even know, don't know what's wrong, yeah Let's straighten it out Ah baby, let's straighten it out Honey, let's straighten it out Ah, let's straighten it out Let's straighten it out Oh baby, let's straighten it out Can't hear you honey, ah, let's straighten it out C'mon, let's straighten it out For the last five nights, honey When we went to bed, I could tell something wasn't right When you turned your back on me And you covered your head, didn't even say goodnight If you're tired and don't wanna be bothered, baby Just say the words, I'll leave you alone Instead of laying there, cryin' your eyes out You and me ought to be gettin' along Ah, let's straighten it out Mmm, let's straighten it out Let's straighten it out, baby Ah, let's straighten it out C'mon, let's straighten it out Just say the words, I'll straighten it out Instead of laying there, cryin' your eyes out You and me ought to be gettin' along Oh, let's straighten it out Oh, baby, let's straighten it out Hey, honey, let's straighten it out Ahh, let's straighten it out Let's straighten it out Let's straighten it out Let's straighten it out Let's straighten it out
