Everyday Clothes by Jonathan Richman Lyrics

Going to a party
And she's wondering what’s to wear
I said 'look, why don't you wear what you wear every day?’
You know, tee shirt
You know, sweatshirt
You know, cutoff shorts and all those
Plain ol' everyday clothes

She had a black dress that I
Remember still
But in her ordinary clothes
The girl was dressed to kill

[Pre-Chorus]
I loved her, I loved her at first sight I suppose
And I couldn'ta loved her more than in her plain old everyday 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
Now she's in something from the hardware store
But Pierre cotton and a [?]
She coulda' done no more

[Pre-Chorus]
'cos I loved her, cos I loved her
Cos that's the way it goes
And I loved her even more in just her plain old every day clothes
Yeah, 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

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

[Pre-Chorus]
’cos I loved her, cos I loved her
Since every angel north
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 [?]
Jeans and something from the hardware store
But the Italian boys couldn'ta done no more

Alright
Woah alright
