Straight to the Point Songtext

von Carrie Newcomer

Some come in the side door swingin'
Some eat in the kitchen but they don't mind
Some stride in without even knockin'
Some act like they've been here the whole damn time

Gonna live my life like it don't get much better
Gonna walk right in like I own this joint
Get right down to the heart of the matter
Live straight to the point

I don't need the keys to the kingdom
'Cause I don't measure my life that way
Try as you might to hold on to something
Sooner or later it's all going to change

Gonna live my life like it don't get much better
Gonna walk right in like I own this joint
Get right down to the heart of the matter
Live straight to the point

There is no point if the point is not taken
Most of our prisons are of our own makin'

She'd drop dimes and nickels in the jukebox
And The Glory of Love is what she'd always play
She'd say "You gotta be brave, you gotta be fearless
"And when you're afraid just do it anyway"

Gonna live my life like it don't get much better
Gonna walk right in like I own this joint
Get right down to the heart of the matter
Live straight to the point

It's all in the tellin'; it's all in the story
It's all in the way that you walk the walk
Let your life speak 'cause there aint no secrets
Let your head help, but let your heart talk

Gonna live my life like it don't get much better
Gonna walk right in like I own this joint
Get right down to the heart of the matter
Live straight to the point
