Straight Up - Lyrics by Brian Setzer


Lyrics

Written by Merritt, Lambert, Setzer

Hey bartender
I got a lover but it's not what it seems
Pour me a drink if you know what I mean
Don't mix it up, gimme straight what you got
I don't want it on the rocks I want my lovin straight up

Well my baby don't love me hey don't you see
Straight no chaser is alright by me
Don't mix it up gimme straight what you got
I don't want it on the rocks I want my lovin straight up

Hey my baby don't love me hey don't you see
Straight no chaser is OK by me
Don't mix it up gimme straight what you got
I don't want it on the rocks I want my lovin straight up

She'll win you all over with wine and a song
Love you all night and by morning she's gone
Don't mix it up gimme straight what you got
I don't want it on the rocks I want my lovin straight up

Well I don't wanna be chasin her all over town
Love is like whiskey you drink it right down
When you're all finished there ain't no denying
Man you're really flying

Hey bartender
One more for good luck
Gimme all that you got
I want my lovin straight up.
