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
