Champagne Ladies And Blue Ribbon Babies

Dallas Frazier - Arthur Leo Owens

© Blue Crest Music, BMI

Cozy situations and careless conversations
Caused me to hide the married side of me
Drinkin' leads to thinkin' and thinkin' leads to cheatin'
I slipped around until you slipped from me

Champagne ladies and blue ribbon babies
They tempted me but I met them half way
Champagne ladies and blue ribbon babies
Sweetheart what in the world came over me
[ instrumental ]
Mem'ries and martinis are mixed up every evenin'
In a honky tonk on Loser's Avenue
Long blond hair and blue eyes lonesome songs and soft lights
Darlin' I've got everything but you

Champagne ladies and blue ribbon babies...

How Is Your Love Life

Gary Shelton - Eugene Wadley

© Unity Music, BMI

How's your love life baby do you hear music playing
Does it surround you all the time like summer sunshine
You could feel like you want to you could do what you want to
You've got the right to change your mind

How's your love life baby is there a certain someone
Picking you up when you get down and feeling lonely
There's always another mountain so go ahead who's countin'
You've got the right to change your mind

Hello girl I'm talking to you
Love they say is just a state of mind
Stay a while and let me hold you
Maybe we can make the sun shine this time

Yoou've got one life baby so live it like you want to
You can be what you wanna be if you believe in
Do all the things you want do then you belive like I do
It's time to set your spirit free

How's your love life baby how's your love life baby

Wings Of A Dove

Bob Ferguson

© Bee Gee Music, BMI

On the wings of a snow white dove he sends his pure sweet love
A sign from above on the wings of a dove

When troubles surround us when evils come
The body grows weak the spirit grows numb
When these things beset us he doesn't forget us
He sends down his love on the wings of a dove

On the wings of a snow white dove...

When Noah had drifted on the flood many days
He searched for land in various ways
Troubles he had some but wasn't forgotten
God sent him his love on the wings of a dove

On the wings of a snow white dove...
On the wings of a snow white dove...
On the wings of a snow white dove...

Walls Instead Of Bridges

Ferlin Husky

© Husky Music, BMI

Honey we didn't touch the sunset honey we never shared the sunrise
Now we've got walls instead of bridges

Lord I dread the nights in my lonely bed
Staring back at me empty
How'd you grout my mind all of the time
I wanna climb that wall between us

I guess we never had good times to be good lovers
And we pay for this when our love suffered
Honey we didn't touch the sunset honey we never shared the sunrise
Now we've got walls instead of bridges
[ instrumental ]
How can I deny those wasted nights
Lord I can't depend this sin
If you'd find the pine I'd try again
And we'd tear down that wall between us

I guess we never had good times...
Honey we didn't touch the sunset...

I Feel Better All Over

Kenny Rogers - Leon Smith

© Cherry Lane Music, BMI

I feel better all over more than anywhere else
Baby when I'm out with you
Well I feel better all over more than anywhere else
When ye kiss me like you do
Well I'm as wild as a buck everytime you calls me up
You sure makes me feel like a wheel
Well I feel better all over more than anywhere else
That's exactly how I feel

Well I feel better all over more than anywhere else
When you whisper sweet nothings in my ear
Well I feel better all over more than anywhere else
Anytime that you're near
Well my heart beats double time when I holds your hand in mine
Oh you sure is a wonderful deal
Well I feel better all over more than anywhere else
That's exactly how I feel
[ instrumental ]
I feel better all over more than anywhere else
Baby when you hold me in your arms
I feel better all over more than anywhere else
When you thrill me with your charms
Well I'm as wild as a buck everytime you calls me up
You sure makes me feel like a wheel
Well I feel better all over more than anywhere else
That's exactly how I feel
Oh that's exactly how I feel that's exactly how I feel

Burning

Jerry Foster - Bill Rice

© Jack And Bill Music, ASCAP

Will you hold me in the morning like you're holding me tonight
Love is easy when you're lonely but does lonely make right
Am I just another memory of someone you used to know
There's a shadow of your used-to-be that keeps burning in your soul

And it keeps burning burning burning you around
And it keeps burning burning burning our love down
It's like a fire that's out of control
And it keep burning burning in your soul

Are you touching me with feeling that you mean for me alone
Or just reaching in the darkness for somebody else you've known
I can tell that there is feeling yet for someone you used to hold
There's a fire of love you can't forget and it keeps burning in your soul

And it keeps burning burning burning you around...
It keeps burning burning burning you around...

Ghost Story

Joe Allen

© Tree Pub, BMI

I've seen how you tremble whenever he walks through your mind
Stirring up mem'ries that cloud up your eyes where the light of our love ought to shine
I know that he hurt you and hurt you so bad he must have been going insane
Now I finally learned how to hold you together when nobody mentions his name

He's just a ghost story so don't let him scare you
He's not really there like he seems
And tonight when I hold you I'll hold you so close
I'll love him right out of your dreams
[ instrumental ]
I know that he's called you and told you that our love can't last
But don't you believe him cause honey he's wrong he's never been right in the past
So don't let him haunt you and tell you those lies he just can't admit that you're free
And the next time he calls you just hand me the phone and see if he says it to me

He's just a ghost story so don't let him scare you...
He's just a ghost story so don't let him scare you...

A Touch Of Yesterday

Dallas Frazier - Arthur Leo Owens

© Blue Crest Music, BMI

I'd beg and steal if I could feel a touch of yesterday
Oh what I'd give if I could live a touch of yesterday

The rain's been falling since you've been gone
It's gonna rain until you come back home
The hurt would leave if I could grieve a touch of yesterday
[ instrumental ]
The rain's been falling since you've been gone...
A touch of yesterday

Gone

Smokey Rodgers

© Dallas Music, BMI

Since you've gone the moon the sun the stars in the sky
Know all the reason why I cry
Love divine once was mine now you've gone

Since you've gone my heart my lips my tear dimmed eyes
A lonely soul within me cries
I acted smart broke your heart now you've gone

Oh oh what I'd give for the lifetime I've wasted
The love that I've tasted I was wrong now you've gone

Oh oh oh oh what I'd give for the lifetime I've wasted...
(Now you've gone)
