Lançada por
Gerry and The Pacemakers em 1964, chegou ao número 23 nos Estados Unidos, 24 na
Inglaterra e 36 na Australia. Foi escrita por Gerry Marsden pro filme que
estavam fazendo chamado Ferry Cross the Mersey. Tem uma caracteristica de
folk-rock. A letra dela pode ser trivial, mas o ritmo era contagioso, com um riff
de violão e um refrao que pegava, bem parecido com as músicas que os Beatles
estavam fazendo na época.
Não teve
muito sucesso comercial, mas pode ser considerada um exemplo claro da chamada
Merseybeat. Simon e Garfunkel prestaram sua homenagem à essa música pegando
emprestado o riff dela pra colocar em Ricahrd Cory, de 1966.
A
letra:
All right, all right
It's gonna be all right
The day you came my way
I knew I would stay
Close by your side
To keep you satisfied
It's gonna be all right
All right, all right
It's gonna be all right
When you look at me
In your eyes, I can see
The love that grows each day
That's why I've gotta say
It's gonna be all right
All right, all right
It's gonna be all right
Never thought I'd find a girl like you
Now I have, I know I'll never be blue
It's gonna be all right
All right, all right
It's gonna be all right
Every time we meet
My heart skips a beat
And now you're here to stay
You'll always hear me say
It's gonna be all right
All right, all right
It's gonna be all right
Never thought I'd find a girl like you
Now I have, I know I'll never be blue
It's gonna be all right
All right, all right
It's gonna be all right
Every time we meet
My heart skips a beat
And now you're here to stay
You'll always hear me say
It's gonna be all right
All right, all right
It's gonna be all right
It's gonna be all right
It's gonna be all right
It's gonna be all right
