You Wear It Well

歌詞

I had nothing to do on this hot afternoon but to settle down and write you a line I been meaning to phone ya but from Minnesota Hell, it's been a very long time You wear it well A little old fashioned but that's all right I suppose you're thinking how Betty's thinking or she wouldn't get in touch with me For I ain't begging or losing my head I sure do want you to know That you wear it well There ain't a lady in a land so fine oh my Remember their basement parties your brothers courted All day rock and roll shows the homesick blues and the radical views haven't left a mark on you You wear it well A little loud at times but I don't mind But I ain't forgetting that you were once mine but I blew it without even trying Now I'm eating my heart out trying to get a letter through <♪> Since you've been gone it's hard to carry your weight I want to write about the birthday gown that I bought in town that you sat down and cried on the stands You knew it didn't cost me up but for what it's worth you made me feel like a millionaire and you wear it well Madame O'nasis got nothing on you When my copies cold and I'm being told that I gotta go back to work So when the sun goes low and you're home alone try not to think of me and laugh and I wear it well I don't mind if you call collect But I ain't forgetting that you were once mine but I blew it without even trying Now I'm eating my heart out trying to get back to you <♪> I love you I love you I love you I love you <♪> After all the years I hope it's the same address Since you've been gone it's hard to carry on
