Hallelujah I Love Her So

Jim Ed Brown and the Browns · Gems By Jim [RCA Victor] [1967]

(Ray Charles)



Let me tell you 'bout a girl I know

She's my baby and she lives next door

Every morning 'fore the sun comes up

She brings my coffee in my favorite cup.

That's why I know, yes I know

Hallelujah, I just love her so.



When I'm in trouble and I have no friends

I know she'll go with me untill the end

Everybody asks me how I know

I smile at them and say she told me so.

That's why I know, yes I know

Hallelujah, I just love her so.



Now if I call her on the telephone

And tell her that I'm all alone

By the time I count from one to four

I hear her (knock) on my door.



In the evening when the sun goes down

When there is nobody else around

She kisses me and she holds me tight

And tells me, daddy everything's all right.

That's why I know, yes I know

Hallelujah, I just love her so.



Now if I call her on the telephone

And tell her that I'm all alone

By the time I count from one to four

I hear her (knock) on my door.



In the evening when the sun goes down

When there is nobody else around

She kisses me and she holds me tight

And tells me, daddy everything's all right.

That's why I know, yes I know

Hallelujah, I just love her so.



(Hallelujah, I just love her so.)

Once more (Hallelujah, I just love her so.)..

Hallelujah I Love Her So

Jim Ed Brown and the Browns deliver a spirited rendition of Ray Charles's classic gospel-pop standard on the 1967 RCA Victor release Gems By Jim. Known for his smooth baritone and extensive catalog of country and gospel hits, Brown brings his signature warmth to this beloved track. The recording captures the group's tight harmonies and polished production style that defined their work during this era. While the song originated in the R&B sphere, Brown's interpretation highlights the crossover appeal that made such tracks staples of the American songbook. This version stands as a testament to the enduring popularity of the composition and the Browns' ability to honor established material while maintaining their distinct vocal identity within the genre.
