[[Jack White]]:"I can't remember the first instances really, but we've been friends with [Holly Golightly & Thee Headcoats] for a while now. And every time we were in England we were always hanging out together or staying at Bruce's house or Holly's place or whatever. Just been really good friends. We went on tour together and we started playing bigger shows, and she warmed up for us and we love her albums. We probably met her through Sympathy For The Record Industry, their US label because her albums were on Sympathy. We wanted to do a recording together - we were thinking about doing a 45 together or something a while ago. We were in town in London, and we were going to go check out Toe-Rag and I called her and said, 'Do you wanna go work on a song 'cause we're gonna check Toe-Rag out, 'cause we've never been there before'. And she's like, 'Yeah'. So I wrote that song for us to sing, in the hotel room, and finished it in about a half an hour. And we went over to Holly's house and we rehearsed it with her, then we went to Toe-Rag and recorded it in a couple of takes and then we mixed it down. So it was the first time we did the whole process in one day like that, and it was like the first day at Toe-Rag too, to check the place out. It was so good because it was sort of like this folk song that used all three of our real names in the iconic sense. But just then making up this fake situation that Holly and I, we're in love, and that we were having a fight and Meg was breaking up the fight to get us all to be friends again. It was great because especially what Holly says at the end, was what she really actually said when we recorded. It was just on the take and it just seemed it was a great ending to the album, so I love this one."

Band Quotes

Jack White:"It's supposed to be about ourselves, like the Mamas and the Papas' Creeque Alley. It was the first song I ever wrote, recorded and mixed in the same day. It forced me to work. On the next album I'll have a lot of people I respect write down a song topic and write a song about it. I'll be confined with having to come up with something."

Jack White:"I can't remember the first instances really, but we've been friends with [Holly Golightly & Thee Headcoats] for a while now. And every time we were in England we were always hanging out together or staying at Bruce's house or Holly's place or whatever. Just been really good friends. We went on tour together and we started playing bigger shows, and she warmed up for us and we love her albums.

Lyrics


All: Well it's true that we love one another

Holly: I love Jack White like a little brother

Jack: Well Holly I love you too but there's
Just so much that I don't know about you

Holly: Jack give me some money to pay my bills

Jack: All the dough I give you Holly
You been using on pain pills

Holly: Jack will you call me if you're able?

Jack: I got your phone number written
In the back of my bible

Holly: Jack I think your pulling my leg
And I think maybe I better ask Meg.
Meg do you think Jack really loves me?

Meg: You know, I don't care because
Jack really bugs me
Why don't you ask him now?

Holly: Well I would, but Meg
I really just don't know how

Meg: Just say 'Jack , do you adore me?'

Jack: Well I would Holly but love really bores me

Jack & Holly: Then I guess we should just be friends

Jack: I'm just kidding Holly
You know that I'll love you 'til the end

All: Well it's true that we love one another

Holly: I love Jack White like a little brother

Jack: Well Holly I love you too but there's
Just so much that I don't know about you

Jack: Holly give me some of your English lovin'

Holly: If I did that Jack I'd have one in the oven
Why don't you go off and love yourself

Jack: If I did that Holly there won't be anything
Left for anybody else

Holly: Jack it's too bad about the way you look

Jack: You know I gave that horse a carrot
So he'd break your foot

Meg: Will the two of you cut it out
And tell 'em what it's really all about

All: Well it's true that we love one another

Holly: I love Jack White like a little brother

Jack: Well Holly I love you too but there's
Just so much that I don't know about you
