All The Best Songtext
von John Prine

I wish you love and happiness
I guess I wish you all the best
I wish you don′t do like I do
And never fall in love with someone like you

'Cause if you feel just like I did
You′d probably walk around the block like a little kid
But kids don't know, they can only guess
How hard it is to wish you happiness

I guess that love is like a Christmas card
You decorate a tree, you throw it in the yard
It decays and dies, and the snowmen melt
Well, I once knew love, I knew how love felt


Yeah, I knew love, love knew me
And when I walked, love walked with me
And I got no hate, and I got no pride
Well, I got so much love that I cannot hide
Yeah, I got so much love that I cannot hide

Say you drive a Chevy, say you drive a Ford
You say you drive around the town
'Till you just get bored
And then you change you mind
For something else to do
And your heart gets bored with your mind
And it changes you

Well, it′s a doggone shame
And it′s an awful mess
I wish you love, I wish you happiness
I wish you love, I wish you happiness
I guess I wish you all the best
