Lyrics:
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 fell - 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
Say you drive around the town 'till you just get bored
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 - Hudba
Can't believe I'm 71 years old, had never heard of John until that dam corona virus took his life. Listening to his music has made it alot easier to cope with these bad times. I guarantee you I am now a fan for the rest of my life! Thanks John Prine, REST IN PEACE!
It saddens me that it took his death for me to discover John Prine.
R.I.P. John, God Bless You John. All your Fans Love You. RobbieJo and I (Fred Durbin Love You, never heard of you till got on U-Tube, You sure make great music, Down too Earth. Love it.
Algorithms can be awesome.😀
I'm in the same boat. I'm almost 60 and I fund out who he was after a buddy of mine posted a video of The Zac Brown Band doing their version of this song. Both are very different from each, but both great in their right. John was an amazing talent and was kind enough to leave us all here his great legacy of songs. I would've loved to have been at this performance.
Damn dude where you been? sorry you missed the first 50 years
Raise your hand if you’re still pissed COVID took this legend of a man.
Oh yeah, I know I am. Dear Idiots: we love you all anyway - PLEASE GET VACCINATED!
I cried for a month
John you and my beautiful mother died of this this dirty virus 3 days apart from each other, thank you for your music that helps me through my pain
To whomever reads this:
I wish you all the best.
John Prine brought us here. We have that in common. We can argue about all the other stuff while his music plays loudly in the background.
Word I feel that
Or we can just love it and realize how much alike we are. We have that. We have John Prine. We are the lucky ones.
Anyone who loves JP has a beautiful soul.
@@DawnSchwantkeXX I try
No one like him
My divorce and this song came out the same year. I recorded it myself and sent it to her. She was so touched she said maybe we acted in haste. I said “no, we didn’t”. Thanks dear John RIP
perfect
I don't laugh out loud at many things that I read, but this was brilliant. John Prine himself would have appreciated this remark.
You're right, when its over baby its over.
aww yeah when its over dont mean you dont still love . That was a beautiful gesture. xx
Like a little kid. Wow! So true 💯
"Your heart gets bored with your mind, and it changes you..."... WOW
Great entanterer
I saw John Prine open for Cowboy Junkies at The Beacon in NYC. He was so much more fun! RIP John!
There is no one in John Prines Class he’s miles ahead. Miss him dearly
Agreed 👍
You are totally correct!
Genius is too small of a word to describe John.
Complex thoughts through simple musical poetry. The mailman always delivered. RIP John.
I wish this West 54th recording was out there to own. These versions are so clean
I think it's available on DVD....
This is a true "dear John" song.
...I knew love, love knew me and when I walked love walked with me...well I got no hate and I got no pride, but I got so much love that I cannot hide... True lyrics Mr. Prine. Thank you.
Just heard the news. It's a sad morning. God Speed John, you were the best.
only 51, but JP been in my life all I can remember ! Lucky enough to have cool people around me that played JP ! "So much love that I can not hide !"
Just saw that he was infected with Covid-19. I was not familiar with his work before tonight. My brother has always been a huge fan, and I can say that I am too. Please get better John, we need you.
"Your heart gets bored with your mind and it changes you"! Genius! True! For anyone!
It's always been my favorite line
I had first heard this song, listening to a live version by Zac Brown while mowing my lawn. While Zac does phrase it slightly different, the weight of that line, diving into the interplay between logic and emotion, just hit me hard.
DeLyla Person, that has been my favorite line from any song, since the first time I heard it !!
@@j.rollinsbrunson3671 listen to JP's song The 3rd of July. "A thought got caught in a place where words can't surround it."
One o the best lines ever writ
This song got me through one of the most difficult times in my life. I’m praying for you John. You mean so much to so many. Hell, my 8 year old daughter is a fan of you.
Fucking legend. I’m so happy I got to see him in Duluth before he left this goddamn earth.
RIP john. Youre singing with the angels now.
By far my favorite version.....I wish you all the best John Prine.
I agree!
Oh how I will miss this man. Without a doubt, one of the greatest songwriters ever right up there with Dylan and the rest. RIP John....I can't begin to tell you how your music got me through some very tough times ............just like the tough times we have now......I survived them and will survive this thanks to you and your music. A life well lived and extremely well played.....
He seemed like such a nice man.
God how I love him. Learned so much from his words and his guitar picking. True legend 👌
Me to Florian. And my son as your name too! All love kindness sir!
What a magnificent soul. We can still all learn from you!
Man!, I miss John Prine. Been a lifelong fan. My mom and I would listen to his records when I was a kid. I was hooked.
I'm gonna miss you John
Thanks for all The great
Memories and songs.
Beyond brilliant! Absolutely captures that mix of resentment and reluctant goodwill that follows a sad ending. The ironies are beautiful conveyed--lyrics, tune and voice.
I once knew love. Now I just wish everybody love and happiness.
I am thankful for singer song writers like Mr John Prine.
one of my all-time favorites. Miss you John. gosh you were great.
R.I.P. John!! Thank you for the the amazing gift of your heart touching music. 💔😥❤️
There is much great music to be heard-but no one has ever touched my soul and emotions like this sweet man. Rest in peace John you gave us all your best!
I have followed this Wonderful Man's Songs since 1971 , Dear Abby was the first one I heard and loved.
John Prine will always be pne of the greatest!
Miss you, John!
This dude is the genuine article, better than Johnny Cash and I respect Johnny very much.
John Prine is a songwriter first. Performer of his own songs. Love Cash but he is an interpreter of others songs. Different art.
@@bingolong6561 RIP Mr Prine😔
It's been nearly 20 years....I had just separated from my wife, we were in the process of the whole divorce, and I bought myself a ticket to see John in Madison WI. I sat there listening to this song and it reminded me that someday I'd get over the pain and wish my ex the best. It took a lot of years, but I do wish her the best now.
Kelly Cox He's got something for everyone, I don't care who you are - or think you are.
It's always best to wish someone well than to wish them ill. There is such wisdom in John's songs.
Same here, 20 yrs, but I know he is grave loving me, & I'll do the same,28 yrs& been divorced 20 yrs , but still loved eachother, shit happens!
@@Ring0fSaturn yes, but sometimes it gets hard
45 years of being a fan, songs that I felt and still feel. Thanks for touching my soul with your gold. Love you and will miss you. Heaven will be a better place. I will see you some day.
RIP John. Your songs have been with me since birth. I’ll cary them with me till my own end.
RIP JOHN THANKS FOR YOUR GIFT TO US
And I got no hate - and I got no pride
Well, I got so much love that I cannot hide
😘 a million gazillion
Love & Happiness es my Brother 🙌
Saw a shooting star last week, wished for a good christmas, got John Prine, guess miracles actually happen
heavenly if someone doesn't now John I tern them on
Fiona you're a very lucky girl. Tell Billy Dennis loves y'all. He'll be confused. We used to drink coffee Sunday nights. It's cool.
I only heard of John a couple of years ago and enjoy his music ever since.
Rest in Peace John.
Love you.
I know how you feel John...My wife ran off with my keyboard player...and I SURE DO MISS HIM...
Doggone shame or awful mess?
😂
He's cataloging is so huge. I think this was his best song. He took heartbreak and turned it into something positive that's why he will always be the best. JOHN PRINE LEGEND!
You've got gold is a great one too...
This song makes my cry buckets of rain...
Buckets of tears. Got all them buckets coming out of my ears...
RIP John you will be truly missed.
“They can only guess
How hard it is
To wish you happiness”
😣 ouch
Damn, now that's a song.

And good bye injoy life with music thanks alot to all of you
John Prine was what we all would like to be, but never will.
😭😭😭”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” ❤️
He always leaves one in a state of awe. Is this your favorite song?
@@scottrichard5792ciao scott! 🙋♀️😘😍💘🌄
Dudes amazing. Just discovered him thanks to a friend.
I know it hasn't been very long, but damn, I miss this guy.
Great song by John. He is on in Edinburgh in September 2019, welcome to Scotland.
So sad I never had a chance to see him live. Heaven has gained another angel! You'll be missed John.
All the best, John. RIP.
We are in Lock down here in South Africa .... No problem got the net and one of my favorite musicians online ... Rest well Mr Prime your are one of the best ....
You gave US all the best John. RIP sweet troubadour.
He sounds great and even better, he looks like he's back in good health. I wish him all the best.
estilglea FYI- this was before the neck surgery. Tonight he is gone.
@@NetCerpher Yes I know. I met and spoke with him a few years ago on a cruise. He was a lovely guy and a legendary singer / songwriter. I'll really upset with him passing. Perhaps if action would have been taken earlier by our government on the virus - he would still be here.
@@estilglea In Prine's case, I doubt it. He'd just completed several shows overseas at a time when the Covid-19 virus had spread - both his wife and then John came down with the virus after they got back to the U.S. When we hurt or we're mad, we naturally want to blame someone, but in this case, we can blame the damn virus.
This is from John's LP "The Missing Years" that came out about 1991. ALL THE SONGS GROW ON YOU LIKE CRAZY. He has a bunch of guest writers and players too. John's a Chicago boy (like me).
I love you and your music you speak from the heart carry on brother
Independent inspiration for us all! RIP my friend.
I'm like Jason is here when I'm listening to Prine: 2:42 . Love you, John - thank you for all the songs we'll always have!
Spectacular
Loved your work and spirit. RIP and 'All the best,' John.
Another fantastic song from one of the best singer song writers ever .cooperman corringham
Please God, don't take him yet
I saw him do this last night...you could hear a pin drop.
Love him. Could listen for hours ...
John, I wish now I had been listening so much more closely all these years!
RIP John
warm heart.....just love this guy.
Thank-you John Prine! I’m loving listening to every song available that you’ve done over the years in anticipation and excitement getting ready to actually get to see you LIVE at Red Rocks in July!
Good luck on the tour.....see you soon!
Another extremely enjoyable favorite of John prine's. God bless everyone
Laugh n cry till I die
She'd a tear for ya this morning brother...
If Mr. Prine ever did a bad song I've not heard it.
Such a talented songwriter and performer, love this number and by the way 72yo!
Soooo wish this and souvenirs was on Spotify. Live these live versions than all the other versions he's done. Rip Mr Prine. Your forever live in us with your music
excellent as ever,i love john
All the best, John
Get well John Prine, Love You
Simply, THE BEST.
Missin you big time tonight JP!!! Just can't get over it!
Thank you JP. You made all the difference.
Thank you John Prine!
‘Man on Fire’ by Edward Sharpe and Magnetic Zeros sounds eerily similar to this legendary song.
The " Good luck!" at the very end says it all.Gracefully cutting.x
He’s such an amazing artist with so much talents. Is this your favorite song?
Just wrote this for John Prine. I call it: Just for John.
I guess you gone
And that you had to leave
Like the rain that falls down
With the Autumn leaves
And that rain
As it hits the dirt
Can it quench this flame?
Wash away the hurt?
Well I'm not sure
Just how things go
Absurd how we run
When we can't touch our toes
But it's common sense
I mean it just seems fair
That no one should do
What they cannot bear
And tonight you're free
And tonight I cry
You left me standing
Like I don't know why
Yes here I stand
Although I'm on my knees
Out in the rain
On the Autumn leaves
Where the rain does fall
Relentlessly
And tonight I cry
And tonight you're free
And it ain't just
But it's just like you
To go and leave
Before you're time is through
Well I do hope
You make it home
And that you get as far away
From all alone
That you find some peace
That you find some rest
You flew the coop
I hope you find a nest
What you did
No one could do
There will never be
No one like you
And tonight you're free
Tonight I cry
You left me standing
Like I don't know why.
Very beautiful, I'm a guitarist ,but could never song write idky.love john like family
@@mikesmits4857 thanks, I'm in Australia and I finished it right on the stroke of midnight - took me 3 hours but I had to write it.
@@nickdomenicos5987 good job ur welcome. It's like a nightmare that's he's gone. Now
@@mikesmits4857 Notice that in some of the words I'm implying that he is better off than us down here now? Did you know him?
@@nickdomenicos5987 no not personally but loved everything he did, play guitar here , and know all his songs..yes I see ,yes he's at peace now and with his family up there
so love this one, having gone thru such as divorce and my natural poet/writer side, I find this so eloquent but real
We love John Prine and his work for many years. Can someone please identify the other musicians in this video? Thank you!
I'm only beginning to know him now what a talent I'm definitely going to learn some of his songs
RIP JP
God damn
How beautiful
Love it! Been to a many a great gig! One of the best songwriters Heard him first at Cambridge Folk Festival you could have heard a pin drop thats how engaging he is .
❤❤❤❤
RIP you fine fella. So sad to hear you've left us.
luv the man!
