Straight Shootin' Woman

Steppenwolf

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
