STRAIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE
Words & music copyright 2007 Bill Gaunce

Straight down the middle
No spin on it please
I got no time for your riddle
No net beneath my trapeze

No need to hurry I can wait
Just need you to give it to me
Give it to me straight
Straight down the middle
Give it to me straight
Straight down the middle
Won’t you give it to me straight

I can handle the facts love
The cold hard truth as it is
No need to cushion the blow love
I’ve fallen harder than this

Don’t turn away it’s not to late
For you to give it to me
Give it to me straight
Straight down the middle
Give it to me straight
Straight down the middle
Won’t you give it to me straight

You got to hold on to something
You got to make up your mind
Is something better than nothing?
Or best to just cut the line?

Think about it I can wait
Just need you to give it to me
Give it to me straight
Straight down the middle
Give it to me straight
Straight down the middle
Won’t you give it to me straight
