Straight Up

(album: Old Lions Still Roar - 2019)

I been around for a long time
And two can play this game
Roll the dice, make the deal mine
To me it's all the same
Makes no sense or no reason
Try to shake me down
Put the tread on the treason
When I pull into town

Do or die
Kill the lie
Eye to eye
I want it straight up
Face to face
Hold the ace
Win the race
I take it straight up

Got my pride, got my back bone
Watch you twist and turn
No escape with the match on
Make you feel the burn
Bad disguise as a killer
And now you left to choke
Take a look in the mirror
And all that's left is smoke

Do or die
Kill the lie
Eye to eye
I want it straight up
Face to face
Hold the ace
Win the race
I take it straight up
(Do or die)
Do or die
(Kill the lie)
Kill the lie
(Eye to eye)
Eye to eye
I want it straight up
(Face to face)
Face to face
(Hold the ace)
Hold the ace
(Win the race)
Win the race
I take it straight up

I've seen it all before
And lived a life of fools
And I've kicked through the door
And broken all the rules
I've got down in the dirt
Layed wasted on the street
But always had the strength
To get back on my feet
Yeah, yeah

I been around for a long time
And two can play this game
Roll the dice, make the deal mine
To me it's all the same
Makes no sense or no reason
Try to shake me down
Put the tread on the treason
When I pull into town

Do or die
Kill the lie
Eye to eye
I want it straight up
Face to face
Hold the ace
Win the race
I take it straight up
(Do or die)
Do or die
(Kill the lie)
Kill the lie
(Eye to eye)
Eye to eye
I want it straight up
(Face to face)
Face to face
(Hold the ace)
Hold the ace
(Win the race)
Win the race
I take it straight up

I want it straight up
I want it straight up
I want it straight up
I want it straight up
