Below I have added You Wear It Well lyrics. This is my favourite Rod song so I have also added a video.

 

You Wear It Well Lyrics

 

“You Wear It Well”

I had nothing to do on this hot afternoon
but to settle down and write you a line
I’ve been meaning to phone you but from Minnesota
hell it’s been a very long time
You wear it well
A little old fashioned but that’s all right
Well I suppose you’re thinking I bet he’s sinking
or he wouldn’t get in touch with me
Oh 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 the land so fine
Remember them basement parties, your brother’s karate
the all day rock and roll shows
Them homesick blues and radical views
haven’t left a mark on you, you wear it well
A little out of time but I don’t mind

But I ain’t forgetting that you were once mine
but I blew it without even tryin’
Now I’m eatin’ my heart out
tryin’ to get a letter through

Since you’ve been gone it’s hard to carry on
I’m gonna write about the birthday gown that I bought in town
when you sat down and cried on the stairs
You knew it did not cost the earth, but for what it’s worth
You made me feel a millionaire and you wear it well
Madame Onassis got nothing on you

Anyway, my coffee’s cold and I’m getting told
that I gotta get back to work
So when the sun goes low and you’re home all alone
think of me and try not to laugh and I wear it well
I don’t object if you call collect
‘cos I ain’t forgetting that you were once mine
but I blew it without even tryin’
Now I’m eatin’ my heart out tryin’ to get back to you

After all the years I hope it’s the same address
Since you’ve been gone it’s hard to carry on

 

 

 

Did this post bring back some memories for you? If yes leave a comment below and let me know what your favourite Rod Stewart song was. Maybe you saw him in concert. It would great if you shared your experience with us.

If you get a minute could you please pop over to my Facebook Page and join us. I plan to build this page this year as I have more time on my hands since retiring.  I am trying to get people to share their favourite 70s music.  As you know we do not all like the same songs and it would be great to hear page members favourite 70s songs.  I hope to see you there soon.

Thanks For Visiting Today. Make sure you come back as I build the site, leave a comment below if there is any singer or group you think I should add to the site.
