Straight Shootin` Woman — текст песни (Steppenwolf)

Words and music by Jerry Edmonton

I was feelin` so bad `bout my best friend
I could swear the sky was fallin`
He had them put-down blues from wond`rin
Who his old lady was callin`.

I said, "Keep your life and drown your sorrow
And survive the fire that burns you
If you just slow down and cool your temper
You might get off on what I`ll tell ya."

I got me a straight shootin` woman
She`s right on al the time
But all my friends they got shot down
Women shot them from behind

Now those Hollywood women
They pack a pistol `tween their toes
And when you`ve got your back turned `round
They go and shoot the man next door.

So I believe, I believe.
I believe I`ll keep my lovin` at home
I believe, I believe,
I believe I`ll keep my lovin` at home

Now, if you want (Straight Shooter)
To keep (Straight Shooter)
You better leave (Straight Shooter)
Your travelin` gun alone
Yeah, if you want (Straight Shooter)
To keep (Straight Shooter)
You better leave (Straight Shooter)
You travelin` gun alone.

Wo, got me a Straight Shootin Woman
She`s right on all the time
Got me a Straight Shootin` woman
She`s right on all the time
She keeps her bed turned down
With clean sheets on
And I can jump in it any ol` time
She keeps her cylinder greased and loaded
Just to ease my troubled mind
She`s all mine
She`s on my mind
Take her down
