If You Can't Feel It (It Ain't There)

Freddie Hart

© Blue Book Music, BMI

We promised to be honest with each other
But no matter what give all we got to give
To taste all the pleasures life can offer
Not waste one precious moment that we live

And I believe we got it all together
The future wrapped with tender loving care
Feeling is believing and I feel it
And if you can't feel it it ain't there

I don't think we'll ever have to worry
Or doubt about our love being true
Each day you try to prove how much you love me
Each day I find you wait for loving you

I only hope forever is a long time
Because we got so much love to share
Feeling is believing and I feel it
And if you can't feel it it ain't there

Feeling is believing and I feel it
And if you can't feel it it ain't there
No if you can't feel it it ain't there

When You Wake Up (And Start Loving Me)

Bob Morris - Ralph Royal

© Blue Book Music, BMI

I'll be here when you wake up and start loving me

The warmest heart your woman's touch brings the man right out in me
You're everything a man could want his woman to be
Such a pretty sight for sleepy eyes to wake up and see
And I'll be here when you wake up and start loving me

The feeling that I feel for you God knows it can't be wrong
Cause it's your kind of loving that keeps me going strong
It's so hard to wait till you wake up from your beauty sleep
I'll be here when you wake up and start loving me
I'll be here when you wake up and start loving me

I've Got My Hands Full

Freddie Hart - Roger Fox

© Blue Book Music, BMI

I've got my hands full of loving you

Since you walked into my life I've been a busy man
Working every night and day tryin' to please you everyway I can
Working is a pleasure when you're doing what you want to do
I've got my hands full of loving you

I just had another brainstorm it sure do sound like fun
We're gonna get together and do something that we've never done
Gonna tell my other girlfriends I might run into
I've got my hands full of loving you there

There's a little wedding chapel we're gonna visit today
Gotta make sure for certain you ain't ever gonna get away
You really got it comin' happiness is overdue
I've got my hands full of loving you
I've got my hands full of loving you

Just Outside The Church

Freddie Hart

© Blue Book Music, BMI

Oh I telephoned before you left home for your wedding today
To wish you the best the best of happiness in every way
But there's still some time you could change your mind
I still love you so so much
And I'll be there and wait up there just outside the church

If there's any doubt at all that he's the one you love
If it's still my arms if it's still my lips you're thinking of
Then don't say I do don't take his ring for you
And before your lips can touch
While you're still free please come to me just outside the church
While you're still free please come to me just outside the church

I Sing For Joy

Bob Morris - Jack Lebsock

© Blue Book Music, BMI

I sing for joy
And it's because she gives the finest kind of love
I sing for joy
Cause that's the way she makes me feel

My heart jumped with joy when I first saw her
She captured all of me with just one smile
Love took control of me that very moment
Joy came into my world and that is why

I sing for joy...

And now it seems the world is so much brighter
More than I had ever hoped could ever be
She's everything I need or ever wanted
She'll never know the joy she's givin' me

I sing for joy...
I sing for joy cause that's the way she makes me feel

Heartline Express

Freddie Hart - Earl Phillips - Bucky Jones

© Blue Book Music, BMI

My days all start at midnight that's how it is in a trucker's life
When you're gone from home so doggone long makes it hard on a lovin' wife
Now she knows I'm out here truckin' that's the job that I know the best
I gotta make time truckin' down the line on the heartline express

Heartline express I'm runnin' with the best
I got a 3-18 with a thirteen speed goin' north south east and west
Just after that truckstop cafe my cup of coffee and a moment's rest
Then it's down the line cause I gotta make time on the heartline express

Flirt with all the pretty women when I'm out truckin' on the roam
Now I might flirt but I don't touch could never do my woman wrong
They've all got easy lovin' I've already got the best
I gotta make time truckin' down the line on the heartline express

Heartline express I'm runnin' with the best...
Then it's down the line cause I gotta make time on the heartline express
Comin' home honey

Beautiful Temptation

Beautiful temptation you're so fine
Beautiful temptation you're messin' up my mind
You get me all excited right down to my toes
My feet they want to follow you everywhere you go

Beautiful temptation every night it seems
Close my eyes and there you are walking through my dreams
So look how you're running wild in my imagination
I see love all over you you beautiful temptation
I see love all over you you beautiful temptation

That's Not Like Me

Janet McBride - Claude McBride - Dewey Groom

© Blue Book Music, BMI

I'm begging you to come back home and that's not like me
Yes I'm admitting I was wrong that's not like me
To make you leave was so unwise I love you now I realize
So I come to a paradise and that's not like me

Never knew how much I loved you until you went away
I never thought the man could hurt the way I hurt today

I'm begging you please come back home that's not like me
Yes I'm admitting I was wrong that's not like me
To make you leave was so unwise I love you now I realize
And these are teardrops in my eyes and that's not like me
That's not like me

Too Many Teardrops

Freddie Hart

© Combine Music, BMI

The closest friend I ever had I lost today
They all think the bottle took his life away
But they're so wrong for drinking play the smallest part
Was too many teardrops from a broken heart

Oh how he loved her but I loved her too
And what I done almost any man would do
But losing her to me the end begin the start
With too many teardrops from a broken heart

She never really loved him he just couldn't see
And drinking was his way to kill her memory
But he wasn't strong enough to play the loser's part
Cry too many teardrops from a broken heart

And oh how he loved her but I loved her too...
Too many teardrops from a broken heart

Come And Get Her

Freddie Hart

© Vidor Pub, BMI

Now all is fair in love and war at least that's what you say
But if it's true I'm telling you I'm declaring war today
I love her and I'll fight for her it that's how it must be
Come and get her if you want her but first you go through me

In this old world there's lots of girls enough to go around
Before you'll take her love from me I'll be six feet under ground
It's true that she once cared for you but she's made her choice you see
Come and get her if you want her but first you go through me

Now I'm not trying to be brave you could be a better man
But I got true love on my side so come and get her if you can
You had your chance to win her love now she's private property
Come and get her if you want her but first you go through me
Come and get her if you want her but first you go through me
