TAKE GOOD CARE OF HER

(Arthur Kent - Ed Warren) « © '61 Music Sales, ASCAP »
Take good care of her take good care of her

I supposed I ought to say congratulations
For you've won the only girl I ever loved
But I've hurt too much to face the situation
Just take good care of her take good care of her

Just to be around her was my greatest pleasure
She was everything my future held in store
So remember when you take my only treasure
Just take good care of her take good care of her

I must accepted she loves you more than me
So with my broken heart I'll bow out gracefuly

Please don't send me any wedding invitations
For I couldn't bear to see her there with you
If she's happy that will be my consolation
Just take good care of her take good care of her
Na na na na na take good care of her take good care of her

LOVIN' ARMS

(Tom Jans) « © '72 Almo Music, ASCAP »
If you could see me now the one who said that he'd rather roam
The one who said he'd rather be alone if you could only see me now
If I could hold you now just for a moment if I could really make you mine
Just for a while turn back the hands of time if I could only hold you now

I've been too long in the wind too long in the rain
Taking any comforts that I can
Looking back and longing for the freedom of my chains
And laying in your lovin' arms again

If you could hear me now singing somewhere through the lonely night
Dreaming of the arms that held me tight if you could only hear me now

I've been too long in the wind...
I can almost feel your lovin' arms again

I GOT A FEELIN' IN MY BODY

(Dennis Linde) « © '74 Combine Music, BMI »
When Moses walked the children out of Egypt land
He said now don't you worry we're in the Lord's hands
He's gonna walk beside us the time is comin' near
He's gonna wash away all our mis'ry and our fear

I got a feelin' in my body this will be our lucky day
We'll be released from all our sorrow leave it layin' along the way

When Daniel faced the lion there wasn't any doubt
You got to be like Daniel and the Lord will help us out

I got a feelin' in my body...

Won't you lift your eyes up children lift 'em to the sky
Heaven stands before you gates are open wide
Shelter for the weary comfort for the weak
We'll leave the devil's evil sweatin' on the street

I got a I got a I got a I got a feelin' in my body...
[ piano ] Won't you lift your eyes up children...
I got a I got a I got a I got a feelin' in my body...

I wanna know I wanna know I wanna know right now I wanna know
Yeah yeah I got a feelin' I got a feelin' I got a feelin'
I got a feelin' in my body...

IF THAT ISN'T LOVE

(Joyce Reba Rambo) « © '73 John T Benson Publishing, ASCAP »
He left the splendor of heaven knowing his destiny
Was the lonely hill of Golgotha there to lay down his life for me

And if that isn't love then the ocean is dry
There's no stars in the sky and little sparrows can't fly
Yeah if that isn't love then heaven's a myth
There's no feeling like this if that isn't love

Even in death he remembered the thief hanging by his side
Then he spoke of love and compassion and he took him to paradise

And if that isn't love then the ocean is dry...
It's got to be love

SHE WEARS MY RING

(Boudleaux Bryant - Felice Bryant) « © '60 House Of Bryant, BMI »
She wears my my ring to show the world that she belongs to me
She wears my ring to show the world she's mine eternaly
With loving care I place it on her finger
To show my love for all the world to see

This tiny ring is a token of a tender emotion
An endless pool of love that's as deep as the ocean
She swears to wear it with eternal devotion
That's why I sing because she wears my ring
[ guitar ] She swears to wear it with eternal devotion
That's why I sing because she wears my ring

This tiny ring is a token of a tender emotion...
That's why I sing because she wears my ring

I'VE GOT A THING ABOUT YOU BABY

(Curly Putman - Tony Joe White) « © '73 Tree Publishing, BMI »
I've got something to tell you that I think you ought to know
That my eyes are on you baby since a long time ago
And now I finaly got the nerve and I'm gonna make my love
Now don't you try to turn me off cause it's gonna be hard to do

I've got a thing about you baby ain't nothing I can do
I've got a thing about you baby a thing about lovin' you

Ain't no two ways about it baby your love was meant for me
Know that I can't so without it it fits me to a T
Ooh there's something about you baby can't get you off my mind
I know that I can't live without you I think about you all the time

I've got a thing about you baby...

Ain't it just like a woman whe she knows she's got a man
She'll wring you out and turn you bout in the palm of her hand
And then she starts to thinkin' then maybe she's put you in a blind
She'll give you just a little lovin' it'll drive you out of your mind

I've got a thing about you baby...
I've got a thing about you baby...

MY BOY

(Bill Martin - Phil Coulter) « © '73 Colgems Music, ASCAP / Obie Music, BMI »
You're sleeping son I know but really this can't wait
I wanted to explain before it gets too late
For your mother and me love has finally died
This is no happy home but God knows how I have tried

Because you're all I have my boy you are my life my pride my joy
And if I stay I stay because of you my boy

I know it's hard to understand why did we ever start
We're more like stranger now each acting our part
I have lughed I have cried I have lost every game
Taking all I can take but I'll stay just the same

Because you're all I have my boy...

Sleep on you haven't heard a word perhaps it's just as well
Why spoil your little dreams why put you through the hell
Life is no fairytale as one day you will know
But now you're just a child I'll stay her and watch you grow

Because you're all I have my boy...
Yeah because you're all I have my boy...
Yeah because you're all I have my boy...

Say you and your Spanish eyes will wait for me

TALK ABOUT THE GOOD TIMES

(Jerry Reed Hubbard) « © '70 Vector Music, BMI / Sixteen Stars Music, BMI »
Well I remember when I was just a children
A time when the people used to treat their neighbors like a fellow man
Them all day singin's and them big prayer meetin's
When a man was proud to walk up and shake on his neighbor's hand

Lord you talk about the good times talk about the good times
Oh if you ever needed help a friend was there
Some good neighbor would help lift your burden
And the simple joys of life your friends would share

But the times are harder and the people are changin'
Today most folks couldn't tell ya who their next door neighbors are
All the guns are loaded the front doors are bolted
Ain't this old world takin' hate and fear just a little too far

Let's talk about the good times let's talk about the good times
I wish I could just go back to the days I'm speakin' of
When a friend would meet you and a smile would greet you
What this old world needs now is more old fashioned love
[ guitar ] Well my old granddaddy God rest his soul now
Well we had a big long talk together the day he died
He said son this world is so full of hate and venom
And I can't wait to leave this ol' place and rest on the other side

Cause you talk about the good time talk about the good time
Well I'm gonna see all the friends I knew in the good old days
We'll have a big hand shakin' and sit and talk together
Sit down by the river Jordan and sing our blues away

Cause you talk about the good time...

GOOD TIME CHARLIE'S GOT THE BLUES

(Danny O'Keefe) « © '70 Road Canon Music, BMI / Warner-Tamerlane Publishing, BMI »
Everybody's gone away said they're moving to LA
There's not a soul I know around everybody's leavin' town

Some caught a freight some caught a plane find the sunshine leave the rain
Shey said this town'll waste your time I guess they're right it's wastin' mine
Some gotta win some gotta lose good time Charlie's got the blues
Good time Charlie's got the blues
[ guitar ] You know my heart keeps telling me you're not a kid at thirty-three
Play around you lose your wife you play too long you lose your life
Some gotta win some gotta lose good time Charlie's got the blues
Good time Charlie's got the blues good time Charlie's got the blues
[ guitar ] Some gotta win some gotta lose good time Charlie's got the blues
Good time Charlie's got the blues good time Charlie's got the blues
