Paul Overstreet - Love Helps Those lyrics

rate me

(Paul Overstreet)

Grandma she don't really get around good anymore

In fact to get her out of the house is really quite a chore

But everyday somebody seems to find the time to stop

To see if grandma needs something from where they go to shop.

You see love helps those who cannot help themselves

It cares about those hearts that's been put up on a shelf

It'll introduce a lonely soul to a lonely someone else

Love helps those who cannot help themselves.

Mr. Johnson has a small farm down in southern Tennessee

But one year he took ill before the time to plant the seed

And no one knows which neighbor planted or just won't tell

But he had his best crop ever by the time that he got well.

You see love helps those who cannot help themselves

It cares about those hearts that's been put up on a shelf

It'll introduce a lonely soul to a lonely someone else

Love helps those who cannot help themselves.

A little helpless baby child was born into this world

She didn't have a daddy and her mother was just a girl

But there came a young man willing to give both of them a home

The girl he married the child he cherished as though she was his own.

'Cause you see love helps those who cannot help themselves

It cares about those hearts that's been put up on a shelf

It'll introduce a lonely soul to a lonely someone else

Love helps those who cannot help themselves.

Yeah, love helps those who cannot help themselves...
