Story Behind the Song
Eric wrote this in his endless quest for a girlfriend. From his point of view, he wants a girl who will be as zany and amusing as Barney Fife, and NOT a girl who would be boring and lame like Fife's replacement in the later color "Andy Griffith" Episodes, the dreaded "Warren". Dedicated with devotion to Mr. Don Knotts.
Eric adds: That's a pretty good interpretation.
It's about how swell life is with a girlfriend, and how swell The Andy Griffith Show was with Barney Fife. I combined the two and sung about them together.
Lyrics
If I ever met someone
She would have to make my life fun
She would have to be the one
Who makes me feel like when that show's all done
That girl would have to be the Fife in My Life
You're all that's good in life
Even in black and white
I want you to be my wife
Without you, things just aren't right
Cause Girl, you are the Fife In My Life
If I had to live without you
my whole life would surely be blue
Like those color episodes,
All I can do is think to boo
I've never met anyone like you before
You're beautiful down to the core
That Warren guy was such a bore
That Warren guy was such a bore!
Even with your goofy face
nobody could take your place
down in that Mayberry state
in that Mayberry state
You're all that's good in life
Even in black and white
I want you to be my wife
Without you, things just aren't right
Cause Girl, you are the Fife In My Life
You're wonderful
You're beautiful
You're better than Istanbul
Cause girl you are the Fife in my liiiiiiife
