Tell It To Me Straight
(Terry Gomes)
From 1999, this was my first published song. It's an uptempo country song with a twist, something I have always felt would have been a good fit for Shania Twain. I was really focused on writing assertive female songs during that time period in the "New Country" format. I clearly recall the thrill of receiving the contract from Woodrich Publishing in Alabama for it. All rights have since reverted back to me.
"Tell it to me straight,
I deserve no less.
It's about time that you confess.
Give me her name and her address,
'Cause I've got a few thoughts----I want to express!"
