Let's Straighten it Out

Sit yourself down, girl and talk to me

Tell me what's on your mind

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 yo' sleep lately

Sittin' 'round poutin' all day long

Now, how in the hell you expect me to understand

When I don't even know what's wrong?

Let's straighten it out

Let's straighten it out

Let's straighten it out, baby

Let's straight it out

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

Oh, I could tell somethin' just wasn't right

When you turned your back to me and you covered your head

Then you didn't even say goodnight

Now, if you tired 'n' you don't wan' be bothered, baby

Just say the word and I'll leave you 'lone

Instead of layin' out cryin' yo' eyes out, baby

You and me oughta be getting' it on

Let's straighten it out

Let's straight it out, baby

Let's straighten it out

Why don't you talk to me, honey?

How in the hell do you expect me to understand

When I don't even know what's wrong?

I believe we gon' straighten it out
