This song, the theme song of the 80's tv show
Cheers, came playing from my husband's Ipod yesterday on our way home from Makati. He sang to me the song with feelings pa ha (yes you did Hunny!) which sent me laughing and smiling. I've never heard this song before so I was curious (obviously, my husband and I have like different tv & music genres-- but I don't mind
). I asked him about what the gist of the song was. He said that the song is there make you feel better when you're feeling down. He even repeated the line "And your husband wants to be a girl" which made us laugh. Immediately, I thought of BB Gandanghari when I heard this line. Hahaha!
Where Everybody Knows Your Name
by Gary Portnoy and Judy Hart Angelo - Cheers Lyrics
Making your way in the world today takes everything you've got.
Taking a break from all your worries, sure would help a lot.
Wouldn't you like to get away?
Sometimes you want to go
Where everybody knows your name,
and they're always glad you came.
You wanna be where you can see,
our troubles are all the same
You wanna be where everybody knows
Your name.
You wanna go where people know,
people are all the same,
You wanna go where everybody knows
your name.
Making your way in the world today
Takes everything you've got;
Taking a break from all your worries
Sure would help a lot.
Wouldn't you like to get away?
All those night when you've got no lights,
The check is in the mail;
And your little angel
Hung the cat up by it's tail;
And your third fiance didn't show;
Sometimes you want to go
Where everybody knows your name,
And they're always glad you came;
You want to be where you can see,
Our troubles are all the same;
You want to be where everybody knows your name.
Roll out of bed, Mr. Coffee's dead;
The morning's looking bright;
And your shrink ran off to Europe,
And didn't even write;
And your husband wants to be a girl;
Be glad there's one place in the world
Where everybody knows your name,
And they're always glad you came;
You want to go where people know,
People are all the same;
You want to go where everybody knows your name.
Where everybody knows your name,
And they're always glad you came;
Where everybody knows your name,
And they're always glad you came...
