Every Day Clothes

Jonathan Richman

[Verse 1]
Going to a party, and she's wondering, "What’s the way?"
I said, "Look, why don't you just wear what you'd wear every day?"
You know, T-shirt
You know, sweatshirt
You know, cutoff shorts
You know, those
Plain old every day clothes

[Verse 2]
She had a black dress that I remember still
But, in her ordinary clothes, the girl was dressed to kill
I loved her, I loved her at first sight, I suppose
And I couldn’t-a loved her more than in her plain old every day clothes

[Chorus]
Jeans and a sweater
Jeans and a shirt
I started going soft and I started to flirt
Well, jeans and something that didn't fit right
But I loved her at first sight

[Verse 3]
Now she's in something from the hardware store
But Pierre Cardin and a-Fiorucci coulda done no more
'Cause I loved her
'Cause I loved her
'Cause that's the way it goes
And I loved her even more in just her plain old every day clothes
Yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
Jeans and a sweater
Jeans and a shirt
I started going soft and I started to flirt
Well, jeans and something that didn't fit right
But I loved her at first sight

[Verse 4]
Now she’s in something that she’s put on by chance
But, when I fell in love, when I fell in love
It plain made no difference
'Cause I loved her
’Cause I loved her
Since every angel knows
And I, I loved her more in just her plain old every day clothes
My God, her pain old everyday

[Chorus]
Jeans and a sweater
Jeans and a shirt
I started going soft and I started to flirt
Jeans and something from the second hand
But remember what I said about Pierre Cardin
Jeans and something from the hardware store
But the Italian boys coulda done no more
Alright
Woah, alright
