Straighten out


(Cummings/Wallace)

Well you asked me to be your escort baby
On Graduation Day
Wrote me a note and here's what you wrote
You cried boo hoo hoo
And your tears were killin' me babe
Wah wah wah.

I think you better straighten out
Gimme a break
Straighten out ... if you can
I heard you knockin' but you couldn't come in
And we went walkin' down the road to the bin
That was when you were ten, now is now, then was then
Ha ha ha.

Well I telephoned you and I asked if I might just happen to be your chaperone
To the Highbridge comin'-out do
You said goodbye and I began to cry
I said boo hoo hoo
'Cause your leavin' was shakin' me up
Wah wah wah.

I think you better straighten out.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics STRAIGHTEN OUT of THE GUESS WHO is also present in the album Road food (1974)

Biografia

The Guess Who is a legendary Canadian rock band formed in Winnipeg, Manitoba, in 1968. Considered one of the first Canadian rock bands to achieve international success while remaining in their home country, they marked an era in their nation's music. Initially produced by Jack Richardson, they were the first to top the American charts with a Canadian rock song. The group went through several phases and lineup changes over the years, but its distinctive sound, characterized by bluesy riffs, catchy melodies, and introspective lyrics, remained constant. Among their most famous songs are "American Woman", "These Eyes", and "Clap for the Wolfman". Their 1970 album "American Woman" achieved international success, solidifying the band's position as one of the most influential in Canadian rock.
