Ain't It Good

Freddy Weller

© Roadmaster Music, BMI

Na na na na na na na na

Ain't it good to have someone to talk to
Someone you can trust and be proud of
Ain't it good to know he needs you and always does his best to please you
Ain't it good just bein' in love

Nights are never cold since I've got strong arms to hold me
Warm lips to kiss me and I feel so good inside
And when you say you love me it makes everything better
I just can't get enough of you

Ain't it good to have someone to talk to...

Na na na na na na na na
[ instrumental ]
When it's time for loving you know just how to touch me
You never rush me and I feel so satisfied
And I can hardly wait to feel your arms wrapped around me
And let the love surround me one more time

Ain't it good to have someone to talk to...
Ain't it good just be in love

Billy Sherrill - Norro Wilson

© Algee Music, BMI

Babe somewhere I know I'm gonna find it babe
It'll have my love behind it
And it will be a symphony of all you mean to me
A very special love song oh

And babe if there's a way you know I'm gonna say it babe
If there's a melody I'll play it
I'll play it through especially for you and all the words are true
A very special love song oh

So don't be surprised if you're sittin' alone and you hear it
Cause I'm gonna sing it to the whole big lonely world
So turn your radio way down low and get near it
And I'll tell the world that I'm your girl

Babe if there's an ounce of love I'm gonna give it to you babe
If there's a breath of life I'm gonna live it
Every way for you and oh the whole night through singin' just for you
A very special love song hmm for you

Tonight My Baby's Coming Home

Billy Sherrill - Glenn Sutton

© Al Gallico Music, BMI

Last night he called from Dallas he was havin' a beer at the Crystal Palace
He said honey you won't be alone for long
I got to make just one more stop to pick up a ring in Little Rock
And I'm gonna head this semi straight for home

Fourteen wheels a whinin' four big headlights shinin'
Him and that semi been away too long
Hope he don't get stop from speedin' cause I've got everything he's needin'
Waitin' for him right here at home

He's got that big ole engine singin' singin' my favorite song
And I know he's headin' my way rollin' down the highway
Tonight my baby's comin' home
[ instrumental ]
Ten thousand miles I've missed him it's been a week since I kissed him
And forty truck stops since I held him tight
A million chicks and he can get 'em they wanna make love and he won't let 'em
The only thing he wants he'll get tonight

He's got that big ole engine singin' singin' my favorite song...

And I know he's headin' my way rollin' down the highway
Tonight my baby's comin' home
And I know he's headin' my way rollin' down the highway
Tonight my baby's comin' home

Satisfied

Martha Carson

© Acuff-Rose Music, BMI

And that is why I'm satisfied

Now you ask me if I'm happy do I have peace within
Do I worry bout tomorrow when I reach my journey's end
Well I'm satisfied with my Jesus when he knocks I let him in
He'll go with me through the valley for I know he is my friend

Satisfied satisfied no troubles can ever get me down
When my eyes are closed in death with my Jesus I'll be at rest
Then you'll know I'm satisfied
[ instrumental ]
Now if my friends they all forsake me and they turn me from their door
If they sow no seeds of kindness make the thorns in my path grow
Well it won't matter over yonder when I reach the other side
I'm a gonna sit down by my Jesus satisfied satisfied

I'm satisfied satisfied no troubles can ever get me down...

I've got that old time religion got that old time religion
And that is why I'm satisfied

Games People Play

Joe South

© Lowery Music, BMI

Oh the games people now every night and every day now
Never meanin' what they say now and never sayin' what they mean
While they wile away the hours in their ivory towers
Until they're covered up with flowers in the back of a black limousine

Lotten da da da da lotten da da a dee da dee
Yes we're talkin' bout you and me and the games people play

Make one another cry break a heart then we say goodbye
Cross our hearts and we hope to die that the other one's to blame
But neither one will ever give in so we gaze at an eight by ten
Thinkin' bout the things that might have been and it's a dirty rotten shame

Lotten da da da da lotten da da a dee da dee...

Your friends're walkin' up to ya singing glory hallelujah
As they're tryin' to sock it to ya in the name of the Lord
They're gonna teach you how to meditate read your horoscope and cheat your fate
And furthermore to hell with hate come on and get on board

Lotten da da da da lotten da da a dee da dee...

Look around and tell me what you see what's happened to you and me
God grand me the serenity to just remember who I am
Cause we've given up our sanity for our kind and our vanity
Turn our back on humanity and we don't give a lot

Lotten da da da da lotten da da a dee da dee...
Yes we're talkin' bout you and me and the games people play

Words

Barry Gibb - Maurice Gibb - Robin Gibb

© Crompton Songs, BMI

Smile an everlasting smile a smile can bring you near to me
Don't ever let me find you're down cause that would bring a tear to me
This world has lost its glory let's start a brand new story now my love
Right now there'll be no other time and I can show you how my love

Talk an everlasting words and dedicate them all to me
And I will give you all my love I'm here if you should call to me
You think that I don't even mean a single word I say
It's only words and words are all I have to take your heart away
[ instrumental ]
You think that I don't even mean a single word I say
It's only words and words are all I have to take your heart away
It's only words and words are all I have to take your heart away
It's only words and words are all I have to take your heart away

You're All I Need To Get By

Valerie Simpson - Nickolas Ashford

© Jobete Music, ASCAP

Like sweet morning dew I took one look at you
And it was plain to see you were my destiny
With arms open wide I threw away my pride
I'll sacrifice for you and dedicate my life to you
I will go where you lead always there in time of need
And when you lose your will I'll be there to push you up the hill

There's no no looking back for us
We've got love sure enough that's enough
You're all you're all I need to get by

Like a robin protects his nest for you I'll do my best
Stand by you like a tree dare anybody to try and move me
Darling in you I found strength where I was torn down
Don't know what's in store but together we can open any door
Just to do what's good for you and inspire you a little higher
I know you can make a woman out of a soul that didn't have a goal

Cause we we've got the right foundation
And with love and determination
You're all you're all I want to strive for and do a little more
All all the joys under the sun wrapped up into one
You're all you're all that I need to get by to get by
