Don't She Look Good
(Jerry Chesnut)
She was on her way out of your life when
I found her not knowing which way to turn
She's forgotten the feeling of two arms around her
But it didn't take her long to learn.
You had new worlds to conquer so you
Didn't want her or anything crampin' your style
But don't she look great in the new dress I bought her
And don't she look good when she smiles.
Did you really think you were so all important
She couldn't get by on her own
Did you really think losing you would destroy her
And that's why she kept hangin' on.
She stuck to her promise and talked to her conscious
She did all she could for a while
Then picked up the pieces and she started livin'
Now, don't she look good when she smiles.
Don't she look good in a new dress I bought her
And the new way that she wears her hair
She's in a new world and she's not the same girl
She knows now that somebody cares.
You can't believe that the same girl you let go
Could change so in this little while
But don't she look great in a new dress I bought her
And don't she look good when she smiles.
Oh, don't she look great in a new dress I bought her
And don't she look good when she smiles...
If You Can Live With It
(Bill Anderson)
You say you've found another, another you love better
You say you're gonna leave me pack up and go
You don't wanna hurt me but you've just gotta have him
And how will I take it, you want to know?
Well, if you can live with it, I can live without it
If you can face your conscience, I can face my pride
If you can live with it, I can live without it
'Cause I did the only thing I could do baby, I tried.
--- Instrumental ---
Can you really take your rings off without feeling kinda dirty
Can you really kiss him while you're wearing my name
Can you run your fingers all across his body
Without missin' me a little and feeling ashamed?
If you can live with it, I can live without it
If you can face your conscience, I can face my pride
If you can live with it, I can live without it
'Cause I did the only thing I could do baby, I tried...
