1. _ I'm the Only Thing (I'll Hold Against You)
Yesterday you walked away and left me
Today you say you're sorry that we're through
Our love will work we'll heal the hurt, so help me
Layin' blame's the last thing I would do
I'm the only thing I'll hold against you
Let my lovin' arms show you the truth
There'll be no I told you so's
No matter how much heartache we go through
I love you, I'm the only thing I'll hold against you
I know it'd be just like the first time that I held you
When we swore that our love would always last
Let's give it one more try don't be afraid to
One touch and we'll forget about the past
I'm the only thing I'll hold against you
Let my lovin' arms show you the truth
There'll be no I told you so's
No matter how much heartache we go through
I love you, I'm the only thing I'll hold against you
Sometimes things go wrong between
A woman and a man
I know we'll make it work
All we need is a second chance
I'm the only thing I'll hold against you
Let my lovin' arms show you the truth
There'll be no I told you so's
No matter how much heartache we go through
I love you, I'm the only thing I'll hold against you
I'm the only thing I'll hold against you

2. _ Mama Needs Someone to Hold Her
Another Saturday night, there's a knock on the door.
He sees a new face he's not seen before.
He kisses his Mama, says: "I hope you have fun."
He crosses his fingers 'n' hopes this is the one.
Who will love her and bring back her smile,
And won't run away, 'cause she has a child?
The weight of the world rests on his shoulders,
'Cause Mama needs someone to hold her.
They both keep tryin' to change how it is.
She thinks it's her fault, and he thinks it's his.
He knows the answer though, he's just a kid.
She needs someone who'll give her what his Daddy did.
Who will love her and bring back her smile,
And won't run away, 'cause she has a child?
The weight of the world rests on his shoulders,
'Cause Mama needs someone to hold her.
The weight of the world rests on his shoulders,
'Cause Mama needs someone to hold her.
Mama needs someone to hold her.
Mama needs someone to hold her.

3. _ What's a Good Ol' Boy to Do
She took my cowboy boots and my fishin' gear
My George Jones CD's and my case of beer
She left a little note up on the table sayin' we were through
Hey Mister you tell me what's a good ol' boy to do
I had a Cherry Red Pickup '75
Last time I saw it it was headin' out the drive
Her hair was blowin' in the wind
I think that she was laughin' too
Hey Mister you tell me what's a good ol' boy to do
Times are-a-changin' things are rearrangin'
Lordy it's a hell of a mess
Who's in control, well I don't know
It ain't me I guess
I had a dog named Jack she took him too
That was the coldest thing she could ever do
She left behind the cat
You know the one that I'm allergic to
Hey Mister you tell me what's a good ol' boy to do
Yeah times are-a-changin' things are rearrangin'
Lordy it's a hell of a mess
Who's in control, well I don't know
It ain't me I guess
She took my cowboy boots and my fishin' gear
My George Jones CD's and my case of beer
She left a little note up on the table sayin' we were through
Hey Mister you tell me what's a good ol' boy to do
Hey Mister you tell me what's a good ol' boy to do
Hey Mister you tell me what's a good ol' boy to do

4. _ Primitive Man
When you break it to your Mama
Break it to her gently
You wouldn't want to break her heart
When you lay it on you Daddy
Make sure he ain't been drinkin
Or he's liable to tear something apart
Make it clear before I walk up you walk
I didn't just crawl out from under a rock
But I'm a primitive man, I don't need much
Food and fire and my woman's touch
Warmed by the sun, cooled by the rain
Gunnin for pleasure and runnin from pain
I'm a easy ridin, truck drivin, law abidin
Primitive man
I hope you won't be offended
If we just go fishin
At that little bend on Crenshaw creek
Then head out some old dirt road
Runnin for the sunset
Just you and my truck and me
We might end up out on Lover's Lane
Me Tarzan, you Jane
I'm a primitive man, I don't need much
Food and fire and my woman's touch
Warmed by the sun, cooled by the rain
Gunnin for pleasure and runnin from pain
I'm a easy ridin, truck drivin, law abidin
Primitive man
Tell me what's the world comin to
what's a pretty girl like you doin with
A primitive man, I don't need much
Food and fire and my woman's touch
Warmed by the sun, cooled by the rain
Gunnin for pleasure and runnin from pain
I'm a easy ridin
Truck drivin
Law abidin
Yeah, well I'm
A primitive man, I don't need much
Food and fire and my woman's touch
Warmed by the sun, cooled by the rain
Gunnin' for pleasure and runnin from pain
I'm a easy ridin, truck drivin, law abidin
Primitive man
I'm a primitive man
I'm a primitive man
I'm a primitive man

5. _ Only a Woman Knows
He told her that he loved her
And she believed he did
But he never found the way to let it show
How many times did she walk that floor for him
These are things that only a woman knows
And what about the flowers and the cards he never sent
The little things you do to make love grow
What she'd give if he had held her every now and then
These are things that only a woman knows
'Cause only a woman knows what it's like
To wait for a man to open up his eyes
And when she leaves he wonders why she goes
These are things that only a woman knows
She gave all she had
Til there was nothin left to take
It's his turn to look deep inside his soul
And if he'll change will she come back
Or will it be too late
These are things that only a woman knows
Cause only a woman knows what it's like
To wait for a man to open up his eyes
And when she leaves he wonders why she goes
Lord, these are things that only a woman knows
Yeah, these are things that only a woman knows

7. _ I Feel Forever
You slip your gentle hand in mine
You whisper "Love me one more time"
I feel your fingers brush my skin
And I hold you in my arms again
there's something so easy
About the way you always please me
You seem to know just what to do
To make me more in love with you
I hear your laughter
I see you smiling
I taste your love
And I fall to my knees
Higher than a mountain
Flowin like a river
Oh I feel forever
Come over me
I was distant as the setting sun
Never learned to trust in anyone
Always runnin wild and free
Til you gave your heart to me
Now that the sun is on the rise
I smile into your sleepy eyes
The sweetest feeling I'll ever know
Oh my darlin I love you so
I hear your laughter
I see you smiling
I taste your love
And I fall to my knees
Higher than a mountain
Flowin like a river
Oh I feel forever
Come over me
I can see us
Through the years
Across the miles
And the tears
Feels like flyin
Feels like fallin
Every time I hear you callin
Oh, I hear your laughter
I see you smiling
I taste your love
And I fall to my knees
Higher than a mountain
Flowin like a river
Oh I feel forever
Come over me
I hear your laughter
I see you smiling
I taste your love
And I fall to my knees
Higher than a mountain
Flowin like a river
Oh I feel forever
Come over me

8. _ Divine Intervention
If I remember right her name was Betty
We were graduatin seniors goin steady
I was hesitant to wed but she was ready
For holy matrimony
Til one night walkin home
She stopped off at the Strike and Spare Diner
And lost her heart to a transfer truck driver
They had a rollin honeymoon to Carolina
I spent the whole summer cussin him
But lookin back musta been
Divine intervention
That got her attention
It wasn't superstition or woman's intuition
I've ruled out random chance
Destiny, Circumstance
Biology, Astrology
It wasn't numerology
Karma, Zeus or Zen
Blowin in the wind
The only Ying Yang Gol Dang
Thing it could have been
Was divine intervention yeah
Divine intervention
After six or seven years of near misses
Empty promises and half-hearted kisses
I met up lip to lip with my Mrs.
She was walkin through the park
I said "Lord here goes my heart"
It was
Divine intervention
That got her attention
It wasn't superstition or woman's intuition
I've ruled out random chance
Destiny, Circumstance
Biology, Astrology
It wasn't numerology
Karma, Zeus or Zen
Blowin? in the wind
The only Ying Yang Gol? Dang
Thing it could have been
Was divine intervention? yeah
Divine intervention
Divine intervention
That got her attention
It wasn't superstition or woman?s intuition
I've ruled out random chance
Destiny, Circumstance
Biology, Astrology
It wasn't numerology
Karma, Zeus or Zen
Blowin? in the wind
The only Ying Yang Gol? Dang
Thing it could have been
Was divine intervention? yeah
Divine intervention
Divine intervention?yeah
Divine intervention

9. _ Exception to the Rule
As a rule love has hurt you every time around
Every man that you've known has always let you down
I know you think I'll hurt you too
that's something I will never do
I'm the exception to the rule
No one's ever loved you like I'm loving you now
I'm gonna make you see
Even though no other lover ever worked out
I'd never leave
I'm not that kind of fool
I'm the exception to the rule
Up 'til now girl, you've lost when you trusted men
Oh, but rules are made to be broken now and then
Forget all the heartache you've been through
I'm here to change all that for you
I'm the exception to the rule
No one's ever loved you like I'm loving you now
I'm gonna make you see
Even though no other lover ever worked out
I'd never leave
I'm not that kind of fool
I come from a different school
I'm the exception to the rule
No one's ever loved you like I'm loving you now
I'm gonna make you see
Even though no other lover ever worked out
I'd never leave
I'm not that kind of fool
I come from a different school
I'm the exception to the rule
No one's ever loved you like I'm loving you now
I'm gonna make you see
Even though no other lover ever worked out
I'd never leave
No one's gonna love you like I'm loving you now

10. _ Georgia Moon on Fire
Got caught in a heat wave
Not a cloud up in the sky
Nobody could remember
When it ever was so hot and dry
Blacktop roads were boiling
Making tar stick to your feet
I'd wait for the sun to go down
Then pick you up
We'd try to outrun the heat
We'd drive down by the river
Til we found a summer breeze
Soft as a whisper in some old magnolia trees
It was still too hot to handle
A burning desire
We fooled around and we fell in love
And set that Georgia moon on fire
Summer dreams are hard to find
And even harder to hold
Seems like they just fade away
When a cold wind starts to blow
People said we were too young
To know what love's about
I guess that ol? sun was to blame
We lit a flame that we couldn't put out
We?d drive down by the river
?Til we found a summer breeze
Soft as a whisper in some old magnolia trees
It was still too hot to handle
A burning desire
We fooled around and we fell in love
And set that Georgia moon on fire
It was just too hot to handle
A burning desire
We fooled around and we fell in love
And set that Georgia moon on fire
