"She's Got You" is a country song written by Hank Cochran and first recorded (in December 1961) and released (in 1962) as a single by Patsy Cline. Musically the song is an upbeat jazz-pop song with country overtones to support it.

According to the Ellis Nassour biography Honky Tonk Angel: The Intimate Story of Patsy Cline, writer Hank Cochran remembers calling Cline and telling her that he'd just written her next number 1 hit. She told him to come over to her house with a bottle of liquor and play it on the guitar for her and friend Dottie West who was visiting that afternoon. Cline was emotionally moved by its lyrics and loved the song so much that she learned it that night, calling up her manager and producer to sing it to them over the phone. At her next session, she recorded it. This was a rare instance, as Cline and her producer, Owen Bradley, often disagreed with each other's choice of material. This time, they both agreed they had a hit.^{[citation needed]}

The theme of the song revolves around material possessions of a lost love:

I've got the records, that we used to share

And they still sound the same as when you were here

The only thing different, the only thing new

I've got the records ... she's got you.

"She's Got You" was written as Cline's follow-up single to her big hits of the previous year, "I Fall to Pieces" and "Crazy". "She's Got You" was released on January 30, 1962, and immediately went to No. 1 on the Hot C&W Sides country chart.^[3] and to No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song also went to number three on the Easy Listening chart.^[4] "She's Got You" marked her first hit single in the United Kingdom, where it reached No. 43. The hit led to an appearance on American Bandstand with Dick Clark that February and led to Cline having her own show in Las Vegas in the following November. "She's Got You" was followed by a few other minor hits that year, including "Imagine That", "When I Get Thru' With You", "So Wrong", and "Strange".

On August 6, 1962, Cline's third studio album Sentimentally Yours was released, featuring "She's Got You".
