"Love Me Do" (Lennon/McCartney)--George Martin hated the lyrics to this song.

You know I love you
I'll always be true
So please love me do
Wo ho love me do

Love, love me do
You know I love you
I'll always be true
So please love me do
Wo ho love me do

So please love me do
Wo ho love me do

To the top, Johnny!


"Please Please Me" (Lennon/McCartney)--The Beatles first number one hit in England.

Last night I said these words to my girl
I know you never even try girl
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Please please me oh yeh like I please you

You don't need me to show the way love
Why do I always have to say love
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Please please me oh yeh like I please you

I don't want to sound complain
But you know there's always rain in my heart
I do all the pleasing with you
It's so hard to reason with you
Oh yeh why do you make me love?

Last night I said these words to my girl
I know never even try girl
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Please please me oh yeh like I please you

To the top, Johnny!


"From me to You" (Lennon/McCartney)--The Beatles were afraid to record this song because they thought it was too bluesy at first, but they obviously changed their minds after George Martin did a bit of work...

Da da da da da dum dum da
Da da da da da dum dum da

If there's anything that you want
If there's anything I can do
Just call on me and I'll send it along
With love from me to you

I got everything that you want
Like a heart that's oh, so true
Just call on me and I'll send it along
With love from me to you

I got arms that long to hold you and keep
You by my side
I got lips that long to kiss you and keep you
Satisfied

If there's anything that you want
If there's anything I can do
Just call on me and I'll send it along
With love from me to you

From me to you...

Just call on me and I'll send it along
With love from me to you

I got arms that long to hold you and keep
You by my side
I got lips that long to kiss you and keep you
Satisfied

If there's anything that you want
If there's anything I can do
Just call on me and I'll send it along
With love from me to you, to you , to you, to you

To the top, Johnny!


"She Loves You" (Lennon/McCartney)--This was the best-selling single in Britain for awhile until 1977. Who other than Paul McCartney and Wings to beat it out with their lovely "Mull of Kintyre."

She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
She loves you yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You think you've lost your love
Well I saw her yesterday-yi-yay
It's you she's thinking of and
She told me what to say-yi-ya
She said she loves you and you know that
Can't be bad
Yes, she loves you and you know you should be glad

She said you hurt her, so she almost lost her mind
But now she says she knows you're not the hurting kind
She says she loves you and you know that can't be bad
Yes, she loves you and you know you should be glad

She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
She loves you yeah, yeah, yeah
And with a love like that you know you should be glad

You know it's up to you, I think it's only fair,
Pride can hurt you, too, apologize to her because
She loves you and you know that can't be bad
Yes, she loves you and you know you should be glad

She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
She loves you yeah, yeah, yeah
With a love like that you know you should be glad
With a love like that you know you should be glad
With a love like that you know you should be glad
Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah

To the top, Johnny!


"I Want to Hold Your Hand" (Lennon/McCartney)--Bob Dylan was almost positive that the Beatles used marijuana and that the lyrics were "I get hide." They didn't have Beatles lyrics pages back then, you know.

Oh yeah, I'll tell you something,
I think you'll understand,
When I say that something,
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand

Oh, please, say to me
You'll let me be your man
And please, say to me
You'll let me hold your hand,
Now let me hold your hand,
I wanna hold your hand

And when I touch you, I feel happy inside
It's such a feeling
That my love I can't hide
I can't hide, I can't hide

Yeah, you got that something,
I'll think you'll understand,
When I say that something,
I wanna hold your hand,
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand

And when I touch you, I feel happy inside
It's such a feeling
That my love I can't hide
I can't hide, I can't hide

Yeah, you got that something,
I'll think you'll understand,
When I say that something,
I wanna hold your hand,
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand

To the top, Johnny!


"All My Loving" (Lennon/McCartney)--One of Paulie's "first biggies" for which he had composed the words before he put music to it....interesting, huh?

Close your eyes and I'll kiss you,
Tomorrow I'll miss you,
Remember, I'll always be true
And then while I'm away
I'll write home everyday
And I'll send all my loving to you.

I'll pretend that I'm kissing the lips I am missing
And hope that my dreams will come true
And then while I'm away, I'll write home everyday,
And I'll send all my loving to you

All my loving, I will send to you
All my loving, darling, I'll be true

All my loving
All my loving
All my loving, I will send to you.

To the top, Johnny!


"Can't Buy Me Love" (Lennon/McCartney)--Not only is this one of the greatest 80s flicks, but this number one song was playedby a military band as the Beatles received their MBEs. How cool is that?

Can't buy me love, oh
Love, oh
Can't buy me love, oh

I'll buy you a diamond ring, my friend
If it makes you feel all right
I'll get you anything, my friend
If it makes you feel all right

'Cause 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

I don't care too much for money
For money can't buy me love

Can't buy me love, oh
Everybody tells me so
Can't buy me love, oh

No, no, no, --no!

Say you don't need no diamond rings
And I'll be satisfied
Tell me that you want the kind of things
That money just can't buy

I don't care too much for money
Money can't buy me love
Owww!

Buy me love, oh
Everybody tells me so
Can't buy me love, oh

No, no, no, --no!

Say you don't need no diamond rings
And I'll be satisfied
Tell me that you want the kind of things
That money just can't buy

I don't care too much for money
Money can't buy me love

Can't buy me love, oh
Love, oh
Buy me love, oh

To the top, Johnny!


"A Hard Day's Night" (Lennon/McCartney)--John says that only reason Paul sings on this song was because he could not reach the high notes.

It's been a hard day's night
And I've been working like a dog
It's been a hard day's night
I should be sleeping like a log
But when I get home to you
I find the things that you do
Will make me feel all right

You know I work all day
To get you money to buy you things
And it's worth it just to say
You're gonna give me everything

So why on Earth should I moan
'Cos when I get you alone
You know I'll feel okay

When I'm home everything seems to be right
When I'm home feeling you holding me tight, tight
Yeh

It's been a hard day's night
And I've been working like a dog
It's been a hard day's night
I should be sleeping like a log
But when I get home to you
I find the things that you do
Will make me feel all right

So why on Earth should I moan
'Cos when I get you alone
You know I'll feel okay

When I'm home everything seems to be right
When I'm home feeling you holding me tight, tight
Yeh

It's been a hard day's night
And I've been working like a dog
It's been a hard day's night
I should be sleeping like a log
But when I get home to you
I find the things that you do
Will make me feel all right

You know I feel alright
You know I feel alright

To the top, Johnny!


"And I Love Her" (Lennon/McCartney)--One of the most-covered Beatles songs. By 1972, in October, it had 372 different versions recorded.

I give her all my love
That's all I do
And if you saw my love
You'd love her too
I love her

She gives me everything
And tenderly
The kiss my lover brings
She brings to me
And I love her

A love like ours
Could never die
As long as I
Have you near me

Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her

Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her

To the top,Johnny!


"Eight Days a Week" (Lennon/McCartney)--Was going to the Beatles' latest single, but Mr. Lennon pulled out "I Feel Fine." They both went to number one, anyhow.

Ooh I need your love babe
Guess you know it's true
Hope you need my love babe
Just like I need you

Hold me, love me, hold me, love me

I ain't got nothin' but love babe
Eight days a week

Love you everyday girl
Always on my mind
One thing I can say girl
Love you all the time

Hold me, love me, hold me, love me

I ain't got nothin' but love girl
Eight days a week

Eight days a week
I love you
Eight days a week
Is not enough to show I care

Ooh I need your love babe
Yes you know it's true
Hope you need my love babe just like I need you

Hold me, love me, hold me, love me

I ain't got nothin' but love babe
Eight days a week

Eight days a week
I love you
Eight days a week
Is not enough to show I care

Love you every day girl, always on my mind
One thing I can say girl love you all the time

Hold me, love me, hold me, love me

I ain't got nothing but love babe
Eight days a week
Eight days a week
Eight days a week

To the top, Johnny!


"I Feel Fine" (Lennon/McCartney)--This was that song I was talking about that went to number one and was the first song evah to use feedback!

Baby's good to me you know
She's happy as can be you know
She said so
I'm in love with her and I feel fine

Baby says she's mine you know
She tells me all the time you know
She said so
I'm in love with her and I feel fine

I'm so glad that she's my little girl
She's so glad she's telling all the world
That her baby buys her things you know
He buys her diamond rings you know
She's in love with me and I feel fine

Baby says she's mine you know
She tells me all the time you know
She said so
I'm in love with her and I feel fine

I'm so glad that she's my little girl
She's so glad she's telling all the world
That her baby buys her things you know
He buys her diamond rings you know
She said so
She's in love with me and I feel fine
She's in love with me and I feel fine ooh ooh

To the top, Johnny!


"Ticket to Ride" (Lennon/McCartney)--John considered this one of the earliest heavy metal records ever made, and said that Paul's contribution was "the way Ringo played the drums."

I think I'm gonna be sad
I think it's today, yeh
The girl that's driving me mad
Is going away

She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
But she don't care

She said that living with me is bringing
Her down, yeh
For she would never be free when I was around

She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
But she don't care

I don't know why she's riding so high
She ought to think twice
She ought to do right by me

Before she gets to saying goodbye
She ought to think twice
She ought to do right by me

I think I'm gonna be sad
I think it's today, yeh
The girl that's driving me mad
Is going away, yeh

She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
But she don't care

I don't know why she's riding so high
She ought to think twice
She ought to do right by me

Before she gets to saying goodbye
She ought to think twice
She ought to do right by me

She said that living with me is bringing
Her down, yeh
For she would never be free when I was around

She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
But she don't care

My baby don't care
My baby don't care

To the top, Johnny!


"Yesterday" (Lennon/McCartney)--This was a single in the US, but not in the UK. You probably knew that already, though...you're so smart!

Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far way
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh I believe in yesterday

Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh yesterday came suddenly

Why she had to go I don't know
She wouldn't say
I said something wrong now I long for yesterday

Yesterday love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh I believe in yesterday

Why she had to go I don't know
She wouldn't say
I said something wrong now I long for yesterday

Yesterday love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh I believe in yesterday

Mmm mmm mmm mmm

To the top, Johnny!
