RUB IT IN

(Laying Martine)
« © '71 Ahab Music, BMI »
Lay beside me on the sand put some lotion on your hand
Come on and make me feel nice then kiss me once or twice
And say you love me again

Then rub it in rub it in rub it in rub it in
I feel the tingle begin you're gettin' under my skin
Rub it in rub it in

Mhm feels good put a little bit on my left shoulder
Yeah put a little bit right here yeah

Turn your radio on and find a slow grooving song
Baby whisper in my ear say the things I wanna hear
Make me know your love is strong

And rub it in rub it in...

Put a little on my nose put a little on my toes
Put it on my back and my sacroilac
And a dab on my chinny-chin-chin

Rub it in rub it in...
Rub it in rub it in...
So rub it in rub it in...

WALK WHEN LOVE WALKS

(John Adrian)
« © '73 Pick A Hit Music, BMI »
Don't laugh while I'm crying love ain't that way
Give my tears some time to dry don't turn and walk away
If I seem lonely in the nighttime rain stay with me until the morning sun
You've got the walk when love walks and run when it runs

Don't frown while I'm smiling love ain't that way
I've got dream you should be buying you've got things that you should say
If you give me the share of your sadness I'll give you the share of my sun
You've got the walk when love walks and run when it runs

Look up at my sunshine might keep you warm
Then we'll both know where to find it when the storm clouds come along
Let's travel down the roads together that's the way they say it should be done
You've got the walk when love walks and run when it runs
You've got the walk when love walks and run when it runs

STOP IF YOU LOVE ME

(Rory Bourke)
« © '73 Chappell & Co, ASCAP / Rhythm Ranch Music, ASCAP »
I just sent a big bouquet of roses to my favorite lady
I hope those roses get to her in time
This mornin' she's gonna marry leave my heart like January
So I've just gotta tell her of the love that's on my mind

It's my fault we had a silly quarrel oh the hurtin' kind
I just found out how much I need her smile
So I told that deliv'ry man to put those roses in her hand
So she reads my note before she walks on down the aisle
It's gonna say now

Yes you stop if you love me
Whoa whoa stop if you're thinkin' of me
Stop if you think that you can take me back again
You win I give in
So stop if you love me
Whoa whoa stop if you're thinkin' of me
Stop turn and walk away from him

Stop if you love me (whoa whoa stop) if you need me
(Whoa whoa stop) if you miss me (whoa whoa stop) if you love me
(Whoa whoa stop) if you want me

FARMER'S DAUGHTER

(Rory Bourke)
« © '73 Chappell & Co, ASCAP »
The day was hot and it got hotter as the sun came pourin' down
My ole car up and overheated I was twenty-five miles from town
I started walkin' down a country road till I came to the nearest place
And there in the yard lookin' sweet as cider was a girl with a beautiful face
She was the farmer's daughter a cool drink of water for a thirsty man

Her daddy came out and I said sir can I use your telephone
He said sorry son I'd like to help but a phone I just don't own
Then he laughed and said it's a gettin' late and you'll need a place to stay
My daughter here can show you the barn if you don't mind sleepin in hay hey hey
She was the farmer's daughter a cool drink of water for a thirsty man

Then we got to the barn and I heard thunder and the rain begin to fall
Aww love that rain on a tin roof
It rained so hard the whole night long she couldn't get back at all
She was the farmer's daughter pourin' all that water on a thirsty man

Now when I think back to that time it always makes me smile
Cause when the mornin' came all her daddy could say was it sure did rain a lot
And to this day I thank the Lord for the day my car broke down
For the farmer's daughter and our three kids they make my world go around
She was the farmer's daughter pourin' all that water on a thirsty man eh eh
She was the farmer's daughter still pourin' water on a thirsty man yeah
She was the farmer's daughter still pourin' water on a thirsty man

QUARTER TO THREE

(Razzy Bailey)
« © '73 Nuarts Music, BMI / Hit Kit Music, BMI »
Doin' my thing playin' on the strings in my band every night
Watchin' the cute little thing that's workin' on the floor she's outta sight
I can't let it show can't let nobody know we got a thing that's a goin' on
Cause our boss man says he just won't stand for any eh! carryin' on

At a quarter to three she's goin' home with me
She'll meet me down the street just you wait and see
At a quarter to three one more time
Where the lights are low she's gonna love me so cause she's all mine
[ fiddle ] All you guys can stretch your eyes and let your mind run free
You can have your fun it don't bug me none cause she belongs to me
And all you girls don't know that it's just a show when I look your way and smile
Cause she's workin' on the floor and I'm a singin' in the band she'll be mine in a little while

At a quarter to three she's goin' home with me...
Where the lights are low she's gonna let me know that she's all mine

WALK YOUR KISSES

(Laying Martine)
« © '73 Ahab Music, BMI »
Turn up that mood music baby turn down the lights
Pull the blinds across your mind baby hold me tight

And just to walk your kisses across my nose
Walk your kisses nice and slow
Send those shivers up my spine
Walk up to my lips one more time

Mhm I can feel your breathing baby can you feel me too
Just a touch can do so much baby when you say I love you

And just to walk your kisses across my nose...

Yeah the telephone ring baby it's a really thing
Listen to the heavenly angel sing
Baby don't you think about nothing but me

And just to walk your kisses across my nose...
Walk your kisses across my nose...

IT'S HARD TO LOVE A HUNGRY WORRIED MAN

(John Adrian)
« © '73 Pick A Hit Music, BMI »
There'll be new dresses that you wear now
You'll look so good he'll pick a flower for your hair
At the end of every day I'm sure he'll find a way
To mention all the things I meant to say
There'll be a house for you to live in
Picket fence and roses bloomin' round your door
We married young we married poorly
I couldn't give you much before
I'm sure he'll find the means to give you more

And I hope that every night finds you holding him so tight
Lord it seems the only thing we did was fight
And one day if you can take the time to understand
That it's hard to love a hungry worried man

Tell the kids I said goodbye now if I tried to say so long I'd only cry
Grow 'em strong and grow 'em tall with their backs against the wall
Let 'em learn to find the chips where they may fall
I guess you've seen the last of me now
To tell the truth there isn't much left now to see
Nothing turned out like I planned
Love won't grow on piles of sand
And it's hard to love a hungry worried man

And I hope that every night while you're holding him so tight...

ARKANSAS RED

(Johnny Christopher - Gaye Barnhill)
« © '73 Unichappell Music, BMI »
I'm not sure where you came from but I know where you've been
Anywhere where anyone had anything to spend
You've hustled every honk tonks and made all kinds of friends
Had every good time to be had and twice as many men

Arkansas Red who's sharin' your bed tonight
Is it just another drifter like me
Arkansas Red lay down your red head tonight
And dream a dream about a dreamer you knew
Cause I still ain't over you Arkansas Red
[ fiddle ] I remember back in Tucson you worked down at Rosa Lee's
You took a cowboy's last ten bucks then you bought him a drink for free
But that's been a long long time ago I was down and you took me in
Cause a woman like you's gotta whole lotta love she can give to a whole lotta men

Arkansas Red who's sharin' your bed tonight...
Arkansas Red Arkansas Red Arkansas Red
Arkansas Red Arkansas Red Arkansas Red

HOME IS SUCH A LONELY PLACE TO GO

(Dale Morris - Jerry Mundy)
« © '73 Pick A Hit Music, BMI »
It'll be time to stop working at the tone
And my wife she's expecting me home
And I'd go home if love lived there but it don't
Home is such a lonely place to go

Home is just a place to shave a place to lay my head
Together we're in separate worlds we sleep in separate beds
And come morning I'll fix breakfast and eat alone again I know
Oh home is such a lonely place to go
[ fiddle ] But there's a place where I can find the things I need
It's my home away from home she has the key
To unlock feelin's my hungry soul will never know
I always fight it but this is where I want to go

Her eyes oh how they sparkle when she meets me at the door
The things my wife don't want from me are the things she's hungry for
My four year old don't understand Lord he could never know
Why home is such a lonely place to go
Yes home is such a lonely place to go
