A Girl Who'll Satisfy Her Man

Jerry Crutchfield

© Champion Music, BMI

I know your heart is aching mine is too
I know exactly what you're going through
So helplessly I've had to just stand by
And watched her hurt you so much I could die

So maybe now I'll have the chance to try
To kiss away your tears and help them dry
Please accept my love and take the hand
Of a girl who'll always satisfy her man

Inside my arms it's nice and warm always for you
And I know I'll make you understand
There'll be no doubt you'll never be without a love so true
From a girl who'll always satisfy her man

So come to me I'll hold you tenderly you'll be in the hands
Of a girl who'll always satisfy her man

Color Them With Love

Ruby VanNoy - Daniel Hice

Say the words I wanna hear
Say them softly in my ear
Speak the words and color them with love
Say that now don't make me guess
Give me all your happiness
Speak the words and color them with love

Now I've heard all the words that tell of hurtin' before
And to the words of sadness I won't listen anymore
So say the words I wanna hear
Say them softly in my ear
Speak the words and color them with love

Say that now don't make me guess
Give me all your happiness
Speak the words and color them with love

Now I've heard all the words that tell of hurtin' before...

Color them with love color them with love
Oh color them with love

(When You Close Your Eyes) I'll Make You See

Jerry Crutchfield

© Champion Music, BMI

If I could just get you to love me one more time
For just a moment have you here with me
With your sweet lips next to mine you'll lose all track of time
Cause when you close your eyes that's when I'll make you see

It's been a while since you have been here in my arms
Oh how they ache to hold you tenderly
I've got so much love to give if you'll take it we'll both live
And when you close your eyes that's when I'll make you see

I'll make you see the sky is just a little bit bluer
I'll make you see my love is just a little bit truer
I won't hold your heart and mind make you want me all the time
And when you close your eyes that's when I'll make you see

I'll make you see the birds will sing a little bit sweeter
I'll make you see that I love you a little completer
If you'll take me in your arms let me keep you nice and warm
And then just close your eyes that's when I'll make you see
Then you'll love me

Find Out What's Happening

Jerry Crutchfield

© Champion Music, BMI

Baby you know me well you know I mean what I say
Before I say farewell I'll give you just another day
So you can find out what's happening
Find out what's happening before long
If you don't find out what's happening
You're gonna find out that I'm gone

Tell me what you're gonna do now you better make up your mind
It all depends on you or I'm leaving you far behind
You'd better find out what's happening
Find out what's happening before long
If you don't find out what's happening
You're gonna find your mama gone
[ instrumental ]
Well baby he'll know it's true we've been through thick and thin
But if you don't come through you won't ever see me again
So you'd better find out what's happening
Find out what's happening before long
If you don't find out what's happening
You're gonna find your baby gone

Find out what's happening find out what's happening
Find out what's happening find out what's happening
Find out what's happening

Love Is A Gentle Thing

Rafe VanHoy - Ann Burns - Barbara Fairchild

© Champion Music, BMI

When dark of night makes way for the early sun to rise
It's peace of mind that only love can bring
And with the golden sunlight drifting through the morning skies
Your tender touch makes me know that love is a gentle thing

Love is a gentle thing and love can keep you safe and warm
A newborn baby nestled in its mother's arms
Love is a gentle thing and like winter's very first snow falling
And love can be a shelter in a storm

The times when I'm uncertain and get restless in my mind
I'm left alone without a song to sing
But when you come to me at night and pull me to your side
Without a word you tell me that love is a gentle thing

Love is a gentle thing and love can keep you safe and warm...
Love is a gentle thing and love can keep you safe and warm...

Tell Me Again

Jerry Crutchfield

© Champion Music, BMI

Tell me again how I'll soon forget you
And won't even think of your name
But this time go slow for I want to know
Just how it is that I will lose this pain

Tell me again how there'll be another
And how that someone will take your place
Then tell me the part what to do with a heart
That still loves you yes tell me again

Tell me again how I'll no longer see you
Tossing sleeplessly through each night
Or when my mem'ry strays to a favorite day
When the world was ours and everything was right

Tell me again how I'll make it without you
And how I'll have time on my side
Then tell me the part what to do with a heart
That still loves you yes tell me again

What Do You Do

Linda Cassady

© Champion Music, BMI

The door bell rang I answered I thought no one was there
I heard a voice looked down to see a child was standing there
She looked so sad and puzzled and then she said to me
I'm here to ask a question won't you answer it for me

What do you do to make my daddy love you
Do you put your arms around his neck and kiss his cheek like I do
Do you take him by the hand and ask him to play
This doesn't work for me anymore you must have another way

So I knelt down beside her and held her little hand
I tried my best to find the words that she might understand
With tear filled eyes she listened to what I had to say
And with these words still on her lips she turned and walked away

What do you do to make my daddy love you...
What do you do to make my daddy love you

Have A Little Faith

Billy Sherrill - Glenn Sutton

© Al Gallico Music, BMI

Your best friend your best girl
Just made a big mess of your world
Cause arm in arm they left you feelin' blue
She set a trap you got caught
You should a took her with a grain of salt
So have a little faith and love will come to you

So she's leavin' for somebody new
She's even got you believin' there's nothin' you can do
So brush that teardrop off of your face
And put a smile back in its place
Have a little faith and love will come to you
[ instrumental ]
Beyond the clouds the sky is always blue
[ guitar ]
Have a little faith and love will come to you

So don't be lonely and don't be blue
Your one and only is somewhere waitin' just for you
But two lovin' arms to hug your neck
It's right around the corner where your least expect
You should be there with love to pull you through
Just have a little faith and love will come to you

You Can't Stop My Heart From Breaking

Gloria Shayne - Noel Regney - Bill Downer

© Champion Music, BMI

Your lips are saying goodbye
You tell me not to cry
But you can't stop my heart from breaking
I'll play the rules of the game
I'll learn to hide the pain
But you can't stop my heart from breaking

You can tell your new love I'll smile and let you go
But what it cost me you both will never know

I'll say I'm happy for you
But if you think it's true
What a sad mistake you're making
No you can't stop my heart from breaking

I'll say I'm happy for you...
