The Beatles Lyrics, album "Live in New York City"It's So Hard (John Lennon) Woman is the nigger of the world Yes, she is Think about it Woman is the nigger of the world Think about it, do something about it We make her paint her face and dance If she won't be a slave, we say that she don't love us If s Well Well Well (John Lennon) Instant Karma! (John Lennon) Mother (John Lennon) PAUL 1969: 'On the new album I like 'Come Together,' which is a great one of John's.'JOHN 1980: ''Come Together' is me – writing obscurely around an old Chuck Berry thing. I left the line 'Here comes old flat-top.' It is nothing like the Chuck Berry song, but they took me to court because I admitted the influence once years ago. I could have changed it to 'Here comes old iron face,' but the song remains independent of Chuck Berry or anybody else on earth. The thing was created in the studio. It's gobbledygook – 'Come Together' was an expression that Tim Leary had come up with for his attempt at being president or whatever he wanted to be, and he asked me to write a campaign song. I tried and I tried, but I couldn't come up with one. But I came up with this, 'Come Together,' which would've been no good to him – you couldn't have a campaign song like that, right? Leary attacked me years later, saying I ripped him off. I didn't rip him off. It's just that it turned into 'Come Together.' What am I going to do, give it to him? It was a funky record – it's one of my favorite Beatle tracks, or, one of my favorite Lennon tracks, let's say that. It's funky, it's bluesy, and I'm singing it pretty well. I like the sound of the record. You can dance to it. I'll buy it!' (laughs) Here come old flat top He come grooving up slowly He got joo joo eyeball He one holy roller He got hair down to his knee Got to be a joker he just do what you please.He wear no shoe shine He got toe jam football He got monkey finger He shoot Coca-Cola He say I know you, you know me One thing I can tell you is you got to be free Come together right now over meHe bag production He got walrus gumboot He got Ono sideboard He one spinal cracker He got feet down below his knee Hold you in his armchair you can feel his disease Come together right now over meRight!

"One and one and one is three" Got to be good looking 'cause he so hard to see Come together right now over meOh! Come together Yeah Come together Yeah Come together Yeah Come together Yeah Come together Yeah Come together Yeah Come together Yeah Ahh Come together Yeah Come together... Imagine Cold Turkey (John Lennon) You ain't nothing but a hound dog Been snoopin' 'round my door You ain't nothing but a hound dog Been snoopin' 'round my door You can wag your tail But I ain't gonna feed you no moreYou told me you was high class But I could see through that She told me you was high class But I could see through that And daddy I know You ain't no real cool catYou ain't nothing but a hound dog Been snoopin' 'round my door You ain't nothing but a hound dog Been snoopin' 'round my door You can wag your tail But I ain't gonna feed you no moreYou made me feel so blue You made me weep and moan You made me feel so blue You made me weep and moan Cause you ain't looking for a woman All you're lookin' is for a home |
