Prine, John - She Is My Everything Lyrics






She is my everything
From her suntanned shoulders
Down to the freckles
On her wedding ring
Here feet are so warm
They could melt the snow
In the early Spring
She is my everything

She goes everywhere from Copenhagen
To making eggs and bacon down in Jackson Square
I'd like to drive a Cadillac
The color of her long black hair
She goes everywhere

Kisses that come all the way from China
Kinda remind her of memories of Spain
If I get lost you can always find her
Standing right beside me in the rain

She uses Eveready batteries to keep
Her electrical appliances going steady
She can do fourteen things at one
And then the phone'll ring
She is my everything

She know everybody
From Muhammad Ali
To teaching Bruce Lee
How to do karate
She can lead a parade
While putting on her shades
In her Masarati
She know everybody

Kisses that come all the way from China
Kinda remind her of memories of Spain
If I get lost you can always find her
Standing right beside me in the rain

She is my everything
When she wakes up in the morning
That's when the birdies
Start to sing
When I hear her voice
I'll tell you boys
I forget everything
She is my everything
She is my everything

    " She is my everything "

  2. s.... 1....

    Just saw him at the u.c. Davis Mondavi center when he's at 72 years of age and he's still kicking ass

  3. N.... C....

    Stuart Adams used to play this for me often. Miss the serenade. Miss the days with him. Miss the person I lost. Miss everything.

  4. J.... B....

    Great song! War Eagle!

  5. W.... S....

    Kinda reminder, memories of Spain !

  6. J.... W....

    damn good song my friend!

  7. S.... G....

    I have always loved his music and respected him with as a musician and as a man who sees life much as I do. I was really young when I heard him for the first time. He was so young and good looking. Still a lot older than me but that is not the point I want to make. What I want to say is that I feel like he is someone I know well. To watch him grow older and change so much in appearance brings a sadness to my heart that I cannot put reason to. I don't personally know Mr. Prine. I once met him on the Riverboat President in New Orleans. I think it was in 1982. But I know him through his music. Few singer/songwriters can carry such a beautiful view of life inside of them and write about it in such a way that their song becomes a story that appeals to anyone who hears it. He is more than a singer who writes and performs his own songs. John is a lyrical genius who just happens to be, also, the same common man running through life laughing and crying and praying in the wonderfully haunting songs with which he has chosen to gift the whole world.

    Mary Kathleen Burke I can see him getting high late at night by himself and coming up with these rhymes and getting the tempo right, recording it all. Next day he plays it back and thinks: I had a blast last night, and the more fun it is, the better.

    He's amazing.
