IT'S TRUE LOVE

(Randy Goodrum) « © '79 Chappell & Co, ASCAP »
See that mountain over there I'd move it for you
(I know you would) you know I'd move it for you
See the color of my hair I changed it for you
(Mhm you do that for me) you know I changed it for you

Baby it's true love and we've never had this feeling
It's true love and I can't believe it's real
No more broken hearts for you girl I feel the same way too
Cause it's true love brand new love with you
[ piano ] See that star up in the sky I'll go get it for you
(Oh honey I know that) you know I'll get it for you
See these tears in my eyes hear me cry
(Hey did I do something wrong) no I'm so happy inside

Baby it's true love it's a different natural feeling
It's true love and this time I know it's real
No more broken hearts for you girl I feel the same way too
Cause baby it's true love and I've never had this feeling
It's true love and I can't believe it's real
No more broken hearts for you girl I feel the same way too
Cause it's true love it's a simple natural feeling
It's true love and I can't believe it's real
It's true love it's a super natural feeling
It's true love and I can't believe it's real

THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS

(Hank Cochran) « © '63 Tree Publishing, BMI »
I know I'm not your first love they're just a past memory
I'm the one who's got you now and that's all that matters to me
I know other arms have held you but I'm not jealous of these
Cause you see mine are the arms that hold you now
And that's all that matters to me

I came alive when you came along yes you brought life back to me
And I don't care what's in your past you're as far as I can see
I know other lips have kissed you and I know you've been thrilled and pleased
Mine are the lips that kiss you now and that's all that matters to me
Yes mine are the arms that hold you now and that's all that matters to me

HIT THE ROAD JACK

(Percy Mayfield) « © '62 Tangerine Music, BMI »
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back
No more no more no more no more
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more
(Oh what'd you say) Hit the road Jack and don't you come back
No more no more no more no more
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more

Oh woman oh woman oh you treat me so mean
You're the meanest old woman that I've ever seen
I guess if you say so I'll have to pack my things and go (that's right)

Hit the road Jack...

Now baby listen baby don't you treat me this a way
Cause I'll be back on my feet some day
Don't care if you do cause it's understood
You ain't got no money and you ain't no good
Well I guess if you say so I'll have to pack my things and go (that's right)

Hit the road Jack...

BABY DON'T GET HOOKED ON ME

(Mac Davis) « © '72 Screen Gems Music, BMI / Song Painter Music, BMI »
You've got that look in your eyes and it's startin' to worry me
But I ain't ready for no family ties nobody's gonna hurry me
Just keep it friendly buy cause I don't want to leave
Don't start clingin' to me girl cause I can't breathe

Baby baby don't get hooked on me
Baby baby don't get hooked on me
Cause I'll just use you then I'll set you free
Baby baby don't get hooked on me

You're a hot blooded woman child and it's warm where you're touchin' me
But I can tell by your trembling smile you're seeing way too much in me
Girl don't let your life get tangled up with mine
Cause I'll just leave you I can't take no clinging vine

Baby baby don't get hooked on me...
Baby baby don't get hooked on me...

EVEN A FOOL WOULD LET GO

(Kerry Chater - Tom Snow) « © '78 Unichappell Music, BMI »
It's funny how love goes cause I know this could never work out
But honey how love grows even though there's no reason to doubt
This can never be you keep saying it's wrong
Neither one of us is free still I wanna hold on

When even a fool would let go cause he knows there's no use in trying
Even a child would say no when he knows he'll end up crying
Tell me now is it wise holding you when even a fool would let go

My love has no reason like the words in a song that don't rhyme
My love got no season I just know that it's there all the time
Maybe just you and me I can't believe that's wrong
Thinking about you and me makes me wanna hold on

But even a fool would let go...
When even a fool would let go...

SADNESS OF IT ALL

(Russell Wolfe) « © '79 Side Pocket Music, BMI »
She works day and night in a dingy cafe
Feedin' locals and passers by
She never complains of a heartache and pain
But sometimes she breaks down to cry
And her honky tonk husband spends most of his time
Drinking whiskey and watching TV
And now rumor has it he's foolin' around
But the rumor she she does not believe

And the sadness of that all is I could fall
Like rain from the sky for you
Sadness of that all is I could fall
Like rain from the sky for you

Each night at nine around closin' time
He drops by to say hello
We sit down and talk and go for walk
It gets just as far as it goes

And the sadness of it all...
And the sadness of it all...

YOU KNOW JUST WHAT I'D DO

(Jerry Foster - Bill Rice) « © '75 PolyGram Int, ASCAP »
If we lost all we had
Would I walk your rocky road or take a different path
Would I sell my pride for you
If you ask me to walk the streets you know just what I'd do

Would your child have a home
If it should be born of love other than our own
Would I still stand by you
Knowing you've loved someone else you know just what I'd do

If my love for you meant giving up my life would I lay it down for you
And if you were blind would I give you my sight
You know just what I'd do if you ask me to

Would I live with the scar
That you carry in your heart from another woman's war
Would I lend you wounds for you
If I knew you needed me you know just what I'd do

RISING ABOVE IT ALL

(Jerry Foster - Bill Rice) « © '78 PolyGram Int, ASCAP »
I can't count the times because of me your heart's been broken
And I have seen you hurt because of angry words I've spoken
But somehow you always knew when I hurt you I never meant to

We keep rising above it all like the sun on wings of morning
And the hurt can't make us fall we keep rising above it all

I have seen the pain that brought your eyes to overflowing
Oh and I've been so ashamed but then you have your way of knowing
Through it all you could stilll see you and me the way it should be

We keep rising above it all...
We keep rising above it all...
