1) Jerry Butler, Jr… Read Full Bio ↴There are multiple artists called Jerry Butler:
1) Jerry Butler, Jr. (born December 8, 1939 in Sunflower, Mississippi) is an American soul singer also known as "The Ice Man" because of his cool demeanour while singing often intensely emotional lyrics.
Butler was dubbed the "Iceman" by a Philadelphia disc jockey while performing in a Philadelphia theater. However, Butler achieved what eluded many earlier Doo Wop groups during the 1950s and 1960s — longevity. Butler’s solo career had a string of hits, including "He Will Break Your Heart," "Moon River," "Make It Easy On Yourself," "Let It Be Me" (the Everly Brothers classic re-done as a duet with Betty Everett), "Brand New Me," "Ain’t Understanding Mellow," (duet with Brenda Lee Eager), and "Never Gonna Give You Up," followed by two hugely successful albums The Iceman Cometh in 1968 and Ice On Ice in 1970. The Iceman Cometh garnered Butler three Grammy nominations. Jerry Butler further made recordings for Philadelphia International Records in the 80's. His most noted song for the label was "Cooling Out"
Find Another Girl
Jerry Butler Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Find yourself another girl save all her love and kisses just for you [x2]
The very first time I fell in love got my heart broken then people would say when I passed their way
"Theres a hot young man going there going there"
"An unhappy lad going there."
Well one day my mother called me to here side said son "why you so blue".
"Mother I lost the girl that I love why wont you tell me what to do"
Mother wont you tell me what to do?
Save all her love and kisses just for you [x2]
I can imagine how you feel my son but throw it out of your mind Im gonna tell kinda truthfully
True love is hard to find sometimes its kinda hard to find.
But forget about that girl that broke your heart and try start a new
For if there was a guy for her theres got to be a girl somewhere for you [x2]
You just go on and find yourself another girl who will love you true true true.
Find yourself another girl save all her love and kisses just for you [x2]
Save all her love for no one but you. Ohh another love [x3]
Save her love and kissses just for you.
"Mother I lost the girl that I love..Why wont you tell me what to do?
Mother wont you tell me what to do?
Well she said,
"Find yourself another girl, who will love you true true trueee..
Find yourself another girl.Save all her love and kisses just for you

Actually, this is another Curtis Mayfield and the Impressions song with Jerry Butler. He started out with them and continued even as he began to go solo. Of course, later not so much. The guitar on this one and He Will Break Your Heart is just amazing. Like another chorus emphasizing the words sung by Butler.
Lynn McKeown
Love this guy. Always have. And his singing is out of this world. You won't find singing or songs like that now. yes perfection is the word.

Loooooove the Ice Man. ❤❤ The song is so sweeeeet. 👏👏 Can't get enough of this legend. Timeless songs.

The Ice Man is the greatest. I am white and have followed him since the '60's. His music touched an entire generation and I know he will be remembered for it. He sings about love, relationships, betrayal, reconciliation, family values, things that everyone thinks about today. Whenever I hear one of his songs,(and I have all of them) it takes me back to my youth. You can't get much better than that! I hope he is still here for another 40 years spreading his wisdom. He still sounds great!

I love what the Hives did with this song, they stuck to the original, and yet still made it original at the same time. This song, and the hives rendition, both have a special place in my heart.
