[Dolly Parton - Straight Talk lyrics]
Gimme some straight talk
Straight talk and hold the sugar please
Straight talk, straight talk
Sounds plenty sweet to me
Don't talk to me in circles
In some mumbo-jumbo jive
Gimme just straight talk
Straight talk and we're gonna be alright
Cause I like to know just where I stand
I don't like guessing games
And I hate a bunch of gibberish
So just spit it out real plain
Don't use big educated words
From your BS Degree
Straight talk, straight talk, don't trying me
Straight talk, straight talk
Turn loose and let it go
You can tell me anything
Just like on Oprah's show
Just tell me how you really feel
Be on the up and up
With questions I can understand
For answers you can trust
Pick up the phone, you're not alone
We've all got something to say
So listen in and listen up
We'll find a better way
With honesty and common sense
It's really hard to miss
Straight talk, straight talk
Just telling it like it is
Straight talk, straight talk
There's nothing like the truth
Just tell me all your troubles
Pretend I'm Donahue
So don't be shy, 'cause we can talk
You know you've got a friend
Call me, call me, for simple straight talking
What's cooking, America?
Straight talk, straight talk
Straight talk, straight talk
So come on let's talk turkey
Just straight and to the point
About passions, about problems
About noses out of joint
Now I want you all to know
I care and I do understand
And hey thanks for lending me an
Ear out there in radioland
Gimme some straight talk
Straight talk and hold the sugar please
Straight talk, straight talk
Sounds plenty sweet to me
Don't talk to me in circles
In some mumbo-jumbo jive
Gimme just straight talk
Straight talk and we're gonna be alright
Straight talk, straight talk
Makes plenty sense to me
Don't talk to me in circles
In your mumbo-jumbo jive
Gimme just straight talk, straight talk
And we're gonna be alright
Gimme just straight talk, straight talk
And we're gonna be alright
Straight talk and hold the sugar please
Straight talk, straight talk
Sounds plenty sweet to me
Don't talk to me in circles
In some mumbo-jumbo jive
Gimme just straight talk
Straight talk and we're gonna be alright
Cause I like to know just where I stand
I don't like guessing games
And I hate a bunch of gibberish
So just spit it out real plain
Don't use big educated words
From your BS Degree
Straight talk, straight talk, don't trying me
Straight talk, straight talk
Turn loose and let it go
You can tell me anything
Just like on Oprah's show
Just tell me how you really feel
Be on the up and up
With questions I can understand
For answers you can trust
Pick up the phone, you're not alone
We've all got something to say
So listen in and listen up
We'll find a better way
With honesty and common sense
It's really hard to miss
Straight talk, straight talk
Just telling it like it is
Straight talk, straight talk
There's nothing like the truth
