Can't Buy Me Love
( J. Lennon, P. McCartney )
Can't buy me love, love,
Can't buy me love.
I'll buy you a diamond ring my friend,
If it makes you feel alright,
I'll get you anything my friend,
If it makes you feel alright,
For I don't care too much for money,
For money can't buy me love.
I'll give you all I've got to give,
If you say you love me too,
I may not have a lot to give,
But what I've got I'll give to you,
For I don't care too much for money,
For money can't buy me love.
Can't buy me love, ev'rybody tells me so,
Can't buy me love, no, no, no, no.
Say you don't need no diamond ring,
And I'll be satisfied,
Tell me that you want those kind of things,
That money just can't buy,
For I don't care too much for money,
For money can't buy me love.
Can't buy me love, love,
Can't buy me love.
I Should Have Known Better
( J. Lennon, P. McCartney )
I should have known better with a girl like you,
That I would love ev'rything that you do,
And I do,
Hey, hey, hey,
And I do.
Whoa, oh, I never realized what a kiss could be,
This could only happen to me,
Can't you see,
Can't you see,
That when I tell you that I love you,
Oh, you're gonna say you love me too,
Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo,
Oh, and when I ask you to be mine,
You're gonna say you love me too,
You love me too,
You love me too.
Paperback Writer
( J. Lennon, P. McCartney )
Dear Sir or Madam will you read my book?
It took me years to write, will you take a look?
Based on a novel by a man named Lear
And I need a job so I want to be a paperback writer, paperback writer.
It's the dirty story of a dirty man,
And his clinging wife doesn't understand.
His son is working for the Daily Mail,
It's a steady job, but he wants to be a paperback writer, paperback writer.
It's thousand pages, give or take a few.
I'll be writing more in a week or two.
I can make it longer if you like the stile,
I can change it 'round and I want to be a paperback writer, paperback writer.
It you really like it you can have the things,
It could make a million for you overnight.
If you must return it you can send it here,
But I need a break and I want to be a paperback writer, paperback writer.
Rain
( J. Lennon, P. McCartney )
If the rain comes they run and hide their heads
The night as well be dead
If the rain comes,
If the rain comes.
When the sun shines, they sleep in the shade
And sip their lemonade
When the sun shines,
When the sun shines.
Rain, I don't mind,
Shine, the weather's fine.
I can show you that when it starts to rain
Everything's the same
I can show you,
I can show you.
Rain, I don't mind,
Shine, the weather's fine.
Can you hear me that when to rains
And shines it's just a state
Can you hear me,
Can you hear me.
Lady Madonna
( J. Lennon, P. McCartney )
Lady Madonna, children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet?
Who finds the money when you pay the rent,
Did you think that money was haven't sent?
Friday night arrives without a suitcase,
Sundayn morning creeping like a nun,
Monday's child has learned to tie his booflace.
See how they run.
Lady Madonna, baby at your breast
Wonder how you manage to feel the rest?
See how they run.
Lady Madonna lying on the bed,
Listen to the music playing in your head.
Tuesday afternoon is never ending,
Wednesday morning papers didn't come,
Thursday night your stocking needed mending.
See how they run.
Lady Madonna, children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet?
Revolution
( J. Lennon, P. McCartney )
You say you want a revolution,
Well, you know, we all want to change the world.
You tell me that it's evolution,
Well, you know, we all want to change the world.
But when you talk about destruction,
Don't you know that you can count me out
Don't you know it's gonna be alright.
You say you got a real solution,
Well, you know, we'd all love to see the plan.
You asked me for a contribution,
Well, you know, we're doing what we can.
But when you want money for people with minds that hate,
All I can tell you is brother you have to wait.
Don't you know it's gonna be alright.
You say you'll change the constitution,
Well, you know we all want to change your head.
You tell me it's the institution,
Well, you know you better free your mind instead.
But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao,
You ain't going to make it with anyone, anyhow.
Don't you know it's gonna be alright.
Hey Jude
( J. Lennon, P. McCartney )
Hey Jude, don't make it bad,
Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember to let her into your heart,
Then you can start to make it better.
Hey Jude, don't be afraid,
You were made to go out and get her.
The minute you let her under your skin,
Then you begin to make it better.
And any time you feel the pain,
Hej Jude, refrain,
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders.
For now you know that it's a fool
Who plays it cool by making his world a little colder.
Da da da da da da da da da da
Hey Jude, don't let me down,
You have found her, now go and get her.
Remember to let her into your heart,
Then you can start to make it better.
So let it out and let it in,
Hey Jude, begin,
You're waiting for someone to perform with,
And don't you know that it's just you,
Hej Jude, you'll do.
The movement you need is on your shoulder.
Da da da da da da da da da da
Hey Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember, to let her under your skin
Then you'll begin to make it better
Hey Jude, Hey Jude
Old Brown Shoe
( Harrison )
I want a love that's right, but right is only half of what's wrong.
I want a short haired girl who sometimes wears it twice as long.
Now I'm sleeping out this old brown shoe. Baby, I'm in love with you.
I'm so glad you came here, it won't be the same now, I'm telling you.
You know you pick me up from where some try to drag me down,
And when I see your smile replacing every thoughtless frown,
Got me escaping from this zoo. Baby, I'm in love with you.
I'm so glad you came here, it won't be the same now, I'm telling you.
If I grow up I'll be a singer, wearing rings on every finger,
Not worrying what they or you say, I'll live and love and maybe some day
Who knows baby, you may comfort me.
I may appear to be imperfect, my love is something you can't reject.
I'm changing faster than the weather. If you and me should get together,
Who knows baby, you may comfort me.
That love of yours, to miss that love is something I'd hate.
I'll make an early start, I'm making sure that I'm not too late,
For your sweet top lip I'm in the queue. Baby, I'm in love with you.
I'm so glad you came here, it won't be the same now, when I'm with you.
I'm so glad you came here, it won't be the same now, when I'm with you.
Don't Let Me Down
( J. Lennon, P. McCartney )
Nobody ever loved me like she does, oo, she does, yes, she does.
And if somebody loved me like she do me, oo, she do me, yes, she does.
Don't let me down, don't let me down,
Don't let me down, don't let me down,
I'm in love for the first time,
Don't you know, it's gonna last.
It's a love that lasts forever, it' a love that had no past.
And from the first time that she really done me, oo,
she done me she done me good.
I guess nobody ever really done me, oo, she done me, she done me good.
Don't let me down, don't let me down,
Don't let me down, don't let me down.
The Ballad Of John And Yoko
( J. Lennon, P. McCartney )
Standing in the dock at Southampton,
Trying to get to Holland or France.
The man in the mac said, "You've got to turn back".
You know they didn't even give us a chance.
Christ you know it ain't easy,
You know how hard it can be.
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me.
Finally made the plane into Paris,
Honey mooning down by the Seine.
Peter Brown called to say,
"You can make it O.K.,
You can get married in Gibraltar, near Spain".
Christ you know it ain't easy,
You know how hard it can be.
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me.
Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton,
Talking in our beds for a week.
The newspapers said, "Say what you doing in bed?"
I said, "We're only trying to get us some peace".
Christ you know it ain't easy,
You know how hard it can be.
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me.
Saving up your money for a rainy day,
Giving all your clothes to charity.
Last night the wife said,
"Oh boy, when you're dead
You don't take nothing with you
But your soul - think!"
Made a lightning trip to Vienna,
eating chocolate cake in a bag.
The newspapers said, "She's gone to his head,
They look just like two gurus in drag".
Christ you know it ain't easy,
You know how hard it can be.
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me.
Caught an early plane back to London.
Fifty acorns tied in a sack.
The men from the press said, "We wish you success,
It's good to have the both of you back".
Christ you know it ain't easy,
You know how hard it can be.
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me.
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me.
