Straight to the Point Lyrics

by 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'

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e43255-carrie_newcomer~straight_to_the_point_lyrics.html ]
Some act like they've been here the whole damn time

[Chorus]
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
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

[Chorus]

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"

[Chorus]

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 ain't no secrets
Let your head help, but let your heart talk
