YOU LOOK SO GOOD IN LOVE

(Rory Bourke - Kerry Chater - Glen Ballard) « © '83 Songs Of PolyGram, BMI / Chappell & Co, ASCAP »
Oh how you sparkle and oh how you shine
That flush on your cheeks is more than the wine
And he must do something that I didn't do
Whatever he's doing it looks good on you

You look so good in love you want him that's easy to see
You look so good in love I wish you still wanted me

He must have stolen some stars from the sky
And gave them to you to wear in your eyes
I had my chances but I set you free
And now I wonder why I couldn't see

You look so good in love...

Darling I've wasted a lot of years not seeing the real you
But tonight your beauty is shining through
And I never took the time to let you know
So before he takes you away please let me say

You look so good in love...
You look so good in love...

RIGHT OR WRONG

(Haven Gillespie - Arthur L.Sizemore - Paul Biese) « © '55 Edwin H. Morris Co, ASCAP »
Right or wrong I'll always love you though you're gone I can't forget
Right or wrong I'll keep on dreaming still I wake with that same old regret
All along I knew I'd lose you though I prayed that you'd be true
In your heart please just remember right or wrong I'm still in love with you
[ fiddle - steel ] Right or wrong I'll always love...

LITTLE HEAVEN'S RUBBING OFF ON ME

(Gene Dobbins - Mark Sherrill) « © '83 Music City Music, ASCAP / Candy Cane Music, BMI »
I used to like making love and then gettin' up and never havin' to explain
I've always been free I never could see me dragin' no ball and chain
I like running around and being tied down never was my cup of tea
But since I've been holding an angel a little heaven's rubbing off on me

And I'm beginning to like just sittin' and holding hands
Looking into her eyes I'm thinking bout future plans
And then I get the feelin' that the life that I'd been leadin'
Ain't all it's cracked up to be
Since I've been holding an angel a little heaven's rubbing off on me
[ steel - guitar ] I used like to spend the night sittin' on an old barstool
Drinking wine and killing time with all over those other fools
But since you took my hand I think I understand it ain't the way it out to be
Since I've been holding an angel a little heaven's rubbing off on me

And I'm beginning to like...
Since I've been holding an angel a little heaven's rubbing off on me

EIGHTY PROOF BOTTLE OF TEAR STOPPER

(Darrell Statler) « © '83 Chappell & Co, ASCAP »
You ain't never fell as far as when you fall in love
Except the fall you take when you've been loved and given up
When you have your heart and soul rubbed into the dirt
An 80 proof bottle of tear stopper will take away the hurt

Give me an 80 proof bottle of tear stopper and I'll start feeling I forgot her
Get a little loose and lose her memory
And I won't think I'm close to dying because it dries up all my crying
An 80 proof bottle of tear stopper always sets me free
[ fiddle - guitar ] It ain't easy losing love although it's turned out bad
All at once you're turning off old feelings you once had
But I found a helping hand right here in my hand
An 80 proof bottle of tear stopper will help me take command

Give me an 80 proof...
Give me an 80 proof...

EVERY TIME IT RAINS (LORD DON'T IT POUR)

(Charlie Craig - Keith Stegall) « © '83 Blackwood Music, BMI »
Every time my ship comes in a hurricane blows it out again
Stormy weather seems to hang around my door
My sweet bird of paradise flew the coop on me last night
Oh and every time it rains Lord don't it pour

I got a letter from the IRS they said son you're in a hell of a mess
Our computer shows you owe ten thousand more
Well that machine's made a bad mistake
Cause that's more than this poor boy makes
Oh and every time it rains Lord don't it pour

Every time it rains I just washed my car
The whole neighborhood goes swimmin' in my front yard
Well my mother-in-law says she's stayin' for three weeks more
Oh and every time it rains Lord don't it pour
[ guitar ] Just got my car out of the shop two blocks down the street it stopped
I went to use the telephone at a grocery store
I walk back to my Chevrolet but they stole taht sucker away
Oh and every time it rains Lord don't it pour

Every time it rains I just washed my car...
Well every time it rains Lord don't it pour

YOU'RE THE CLOUD I'M ON (WHEN I'M HIGH)

(Randall Rogers) « © '83 Sister John Music, BMI »
Sometimes I like a drink cause I'm happy when I think of how your love it's my life
If you see me light on my feet feeling good inside
Honey you're the cloud that I'm on when I'm high
It's always been my style to celebrate and what more could I celebrate tonight
You're sweet love took my soul flying to the sky
Honey you're the cloud I'm on when I'm high
When I'm high I'm high because you love me
No matter if I'm sober or having bourbon with water by
If you see me light on my feet feeling good inside
Honey you're the cloud I'm on when I'm high
[ steel ] If you see me light on my feet...

LET'S FALL TO PIECES TOGETHER

(Dickey Lee - Johnny Russell - Tommy Rocco) « © '83 Sunflower County Songs, BMI »
Pardon me you left your tears on the jukebox
And I'm afraid they got mixed up with mine
I don't mean to pry it's just that I noticed you going out of your mind
Looks like we're two of a kind

Let's fall to pieces together why should we both fall apart
Let's fall to pieces together right here in each other's arms
[ steel - fiddle ] Alone is much better together and the worst is still yet to come
So let's share the rest of the tears that are left
From two hearts that just came undone
Why should we go crazy alone

Let's fall to pieces together...
Let's fall to pieces together right here in each other's arms

I'M SATISFIED WITH YOU

(Fred Rose) « © '47 Milene Music, ASCAP »
You don't dress up in satin you don't wear diamond rings but I'm satisfied with you
You look just like an angel but you haven't got wings but I'm satisfied with you

I'd rather have you just the way that you are than change you for somebody new
Maybe I could do better if I reach for the star but I'm satisfied with you
[ steel - piano ] You're not made out of candy but you're sweet as you can be
So I'm satisfied with you
I just can't see no reason why you bother with me but I'm satisfied with you

I often wonder if it's all a mistake it's hard to believe that it's true
But if I'm only dreaming I sure don't want to wake cause I'm satisfied with you
[ steel ] I'd rather have you...
So I'm satisfied with you

OUR PATHS MAY NEVER CROSS

(Merle Haggard) « © '80 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Lady I know you're out there somewhere like me you're feeling lost
Maybe right now we both need each other but our paths may never cross
People like us never find each other love is our greatest loss
Maybe I know you're out there somewhere but our paths may never cross

We're two people that should be together cause we're lonely at the very same time
But there's a million too many good reasons why your love can never be mine
Maybe this song was written for you listen don't turn it off
I wish you could learn it and come sing it with me but our paths may never cross
[ guitar ] I wish you could learn it and come sing it with me but our paths may never cross

FIFTEEN YEARS GOING UP (AND ONE NIGHT COMING DOWN)

(Peggy Forman) « © '83 Hello Darlin Music, BMI »
Fifteen years together we climbed by work and will
From a simple two room cottage to a mansion on the hill
Now there's roses in the garden but it's the coldest place in town
It took fifteen years going up and one night coming down

Fifteen years of heaven for one short night of sin
From blue skies forever to an end
From out on a mountain to both knees on the ground
Fifteen years going up and one night coming down
[ fiddle ] Her dreams have all been shattered her faith in me is gone
My tears tell her I'm sorry but they can't write my wrong
One night wrote my story how a man can lose it all
After fifteen years going up it's hard to take a fall

Fifteen years of heaven...
I've been fifteen years going up and one night coming down
