I Want to Hold Your Hand Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Oh, yeah, I'll tell you something

I think you'll understand

When I'll say that something

I wanna hold your hand

[Chorus]

I wanna hold your hand

[Verse 2]

Oh, please, say to me

You'll let me be your man

And please, say to me

You'll let me hold your hand

[Chorus]

Now, let me hold your hand

I wanna hold your hand

[Bridge: Paul McCartney & John Lennon]

And when I touch you I feel happy inside

It's such a feeling that, my love

I can't hide

[Verse 3]

Yeah, you

Got that something

I think you'll understand

When I'll

Say that something

I want to hold your hand

[Chorus]

I wanna hold your hand

[Bridge]

And when I touch you I feel happy inside

It's such a feeling that, my love

I can't hide

[Verse 4]

Yeah, you

Got that something

I think you'll understand

When I'll

Feel that something

I wanna hold your hand

[Chorus]

I wanna hold your hand

I Saw Her Standing There Lyrics

[Intro: Paul McCartney]

One, two, three, four!

[Verse 1: Paul McCartney & Paul McCartney & John Lennon]

Well, she was just seventeen

If you know what I mean

And the way she looked was way beyond compare

So how could I dance with another?

Ooh, when I saw her standin' there?

[Verse 2: Paul McCartney & Paul McCartney & John Lennon]

Well, she looked at me

And I, I could see

That before too long, I'd fall in love with her

She wouldn't dance with another

Woo, when I saw her standin' there

[Bridge: Paul McCartney & John Lennon]

Well, my heart went boom

When I crossed that room

And I held her hand in mine

[Verse 3: Paul McCartney & Paul McCartney & John Lennon]

Oh, we danced through the night

And we held each other tight

And before too long, I fell in love with her

Now, I'll never dance with another

Woo, since I saw her standin' there

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge: Paul McCartney & John Lennon]

Well, my heart went boom

When I crossed that room

And I held her hand in mine

[Verse 3: Paul McCartney & Paul McCartney & John Lennon]

Oh, we danced through the night

And we held each other tight

And before too long, I fell in love with her

Now, I'll never dance with another

Ooh, since I saw her standin' there

[Outro: Paul McCartney & John Lennon]

Oh, since I saw her standin' there

Yeah, well, since I saw her standing there

You Really Got a Hold on Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I don't like you, but I love you

Seems that I'm always thinking of you

Oh, oh, oh

You treat me badly, I love you madly

You've really got a hold on me (You've really got a hold on me)

You've really got a hold on me (You've really got a hold on me), baby!

[Verse 2]

I don't want you, but I need you

Don't want to kiss you, but I need to

Oh, oh, oh

You do me wrong now, my love is strong now

You've really got a hold on me (You've really got a hold on me)

You've really got a hold on me (You've really got a hold on me), baby!

[Refrain]

I love you and all I want you to do

Is just hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me...

Tighter!

[Verse 3]

I want to leave you, don't want to stay here

Don't want to spend another day here

Oh, oh, oh

I want to split now, I just can't quit now

You've really got a hold on me (You've really got a hold on me)

You've really got a hold on me (You've really got a hold on me), baby! (Baby!)

[Refrain]

I love you and all I want you to do

Is just hold me (Please), hold me (Squeeze), hold me, hold me...

[Outro]

You've really got a hold on me (You've really got a hold on me)

Roll Over Beethoven Lyrics

[Verse 1: George Harrison]

Well, gonna write a little letter

Gonna mail it to my local DJ

It's a rocking little record

I want my jockey to play

Roll over, Beethoven

Gotta hear it again today

[Verse 2: George Harrison]

You know my temperature's rising

And the jukebox blows a fuse

My heart's beating rhythm

And my soul keeps singing the blues

Roll over, Beethoven

And tell Tchaikovsky the news

[Verse 3: George Harrison]

I've got a rocking pneumonia

I need a shot of rhythm and blues (Woo)

I think I caught it off the writer

Sitting down by the rhythm revue

Roll over, Beethoven

Rocking in two by two

[Verse 4: George Harrison]

Well, if you feel it and like it

Well, get your lover and reel and rock it

Roll it over and move on up

Just a trifle further and reel and rock it

Roll it over

Roll over, Beethoven

Rocking in two by two (Woo)

[Guitar Solo: George Harrison]

[Verse 5: George Harrison]

Well, early in the morning

I'm a-giving you the warning

Don't you step on my blue suede shoes

Hey, diddle, diddle

I'll play my fiddle

Ain't got nothing to lose

Roll over, Beethoven

And tell Tchaikovsky the news

[Verse 6: George Harrison]

You know she winks like a glow worm

Dance like a spinning top

She's got a crazy partner

Oughta see 'em reel and rock

As long as she got a dime

The music will never stop

[Outro: George Harrison]

Roll over, Beethoven

Dig to these rhythm and blues

Misery Lyrics

[Intro]

The world is treating me bad, misery

[Verse 1]

I'm the kind of guy

Who never used to cry

The world is treating me bad, misery

[Verse 2]

I've lost her now for sure

I won't see her no more

It's gonna be a drag, misery

[Bridge]

I'll remember all the little things we've done

Can't she see she'll always be the only one, only one

[Verse 3]

Send her back to me

'Cause everyone can see

Without her, I will be in misery

[Bridge]

I'll remember all the little things we've done

She’ll remember and she’ll miss her only one, lonely one

[Verse 3 - Outro]

Send her back to me

'Cause everyone can see

Without her, I will be in misery (Oh, oh, oh)

In misery (Ooh, ooh)

My misery (La, la, la, la, la, la)

Misery

Long Tall Sally Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm gonna tell Aunt Mary about Uncle John

He says he had the misery it but he got a lot of fun

Oh baby

Yeeeah now baby

Woooooh baby

[Verse 2]

I saw Uncle John with long tall Sally

He saw Aunt Mary coming and he ducked back in the alley

Oh baby

Yeeeeah now baby

Woooooh baby

Some fun tonight

[Guitar Solo: John Lennon]

[Verse 3]

Well long tall Sally built pretty sweet

She got everything that Uncle John needs

Oh baby

Yeeeah now baby

Woooooh baby

Some fun tonight

[Guitar Solo: George Harrison]

[Outro]

Well, we're going to have some fun tonight

Have some fun tonight

Everything's alright

Have some fun tonight

Have some fun, yeah yeah yeah

We're going to have some fun tonight

Have some fun tonight

Everything's alright

Have some fun tonight

Yeah, we'll have some fun, some fun tonight

I Call Your Name Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I call your name

But you're not there

Was I to blame

For being unfair?

[Verse 2]

Oh, I can't sleep at night

Since you've been gone

I never weep at night

I can't go on

[Bridge]

Don't you know I can't take it?

I don't know who can

I'm not gonna make it

I'm not that kind of man

[Verse 3]

Oh, I can't sleep at night

But just the same

I never weep at night

I call your name

Oh!

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]

Don't you know I can't take it?

I don't know who can

I'm not gonna make it

I'm not that kind of man

[Verse 3]

Oh, I can't sleep at night

But just the same

I never weep at night

I call your name

[Outro]

I call your name

Woo, I call your name

(Wait!)

Oh, yes, wait a minute, Mister Postman

(Wait!)

Wait, Mister Postman

Oh, yeah!

(Is there a letter in your bag for me?)

Please, please, Mister Postman

(I've been waiting a long, long time)

Oh, yeah!

(Since I heard from that girl of mine)

[Verse 1: John Lennon]

There must be some word someday

From my girlfriend so far away

Please, Mister Postman, look and see

If there's a letter, a letter for me

I've been standin' here waitin', Mister Postman

So patiently

For just a card or just a letter

Saying she's returnin' home to me

Oh, yeah!

(Since I heard from that girl of mine)

So many days, you passed me by

See the tear standin' in my eye

You didn't stop to make me feel better

By leavin' me a card or a letter

[Chorus: John Lennon, Paul McCartney & George Harrison & All]

Mister Postman!

(Mister Postman, look and see)

Is there a letter, oh, yeah, for me?

(Is there a letter in your bag for me?)

I've been waitin' such a long time

(I've been waitin' a long, long time)

Since I heard from that girlfriend of mine

[Outro: John Lennon, Paul McCartney & George Harrison & All]

You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute

Oh, yeah! (Mister Postman)

Wait a minute, wait a minute

Oh, yeah! (Mister Postman)

You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute

Oh, yeah! (Mister Postman)

Check it and see one more time for me

You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute

Oh, yeah! (Mister Postman)

Wait a minute, wait a minute

Oh, yeah! (Mister Postman)

Mister Postman (Wait a minute, wait a minute)

Oh, yeah (Mister Postman)

Deliver the letter, the sooner the better

You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute

Oh, yeah! (Mister Postman)

Wait a minute, wait a minute

Ooh! (Oh, yeah!)

(Mister Postman) You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute

Oh, yeah! (Mister Postman)

Gotta wait a minute, wait a minute!

Aah! (Oh, yeah!) You gotta wait, wait a minute

(Oh, yeah, ooh!)

This Boy Lyrics

[Verse 1: John Lennon, Paul McCartney & George Harrison]

That boy took my love away

Though he'll regret it someday

But this boy wants you back again

[Verse 2: John Lennon, Paul McCartney & George Harrison]

That boy isn't good for you

Though he may want you too

This boy wants you back again

[Bridge: John Lennon]

Oh, and this boy would be happy

Just to love you, but, oh, my

That boy won't be happy

Till he's seen you cry

[Verse 3: John Lennon, Paul McCartney & George Harrison]

This boy wouldn't mind the pain

Would always feel the same

If this boy gets you back again

[Outro: John Lennon, Paul McCartney & George Harrison]

This boy

I’ll Get You Lyrics

[Intro]

Oh yeah, oh yeah

[Verse 1]

Imagine I'm in love with you

It's easy 'cause I know

I've imagined I'm in love with you

Many, many, many times before

[Chorus]

It's not like me to pretend

But I'll get you, I'll get you in the end

Yes I will, I'll get you in the end, oh yeah, oh yeah

[Verse 2]

I think about you night and day

I need you and it's true

When I think about you, I can say

I'm never, never, never, never blue

[Chorus]

So I'm telling you, my friend

That I'll get you, I'll get you in the end

Yes I will, I'll get you in the end, oh yeah, oh yeah

[Bridge]

Well, there's gonna be a time

When I'm gonna change your mind (When I'm gonna make you mine)

So you might as well resign yourself to me, oh yeah

[Verse 1]

Imagine I'm in love with you

It's easy 'cause I know

I've imagined I'm in love with you

Many, many, many times before

[Chorus]

It's not like me to pretend

But I'll get you, I'll get you in the end

Yes I will, I'll get you in the end, oh yeah, oh yeah

Oh yeah, oh yeah

Woah yeah

You Can’t Do That Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I got something to say that might cause you pain

If I catch you talking to that boy again

I’m going to let you down

And leave you flat

Because I told you before

Oh, you can’t do that

[Verse 2]

Well, it’s the second time I’ve caught you talking to him

Do I have to tell you one more time, I think it’s a sin

I think I'll let you down (Let you down)

And leave you flat (Going to let you down and leave you flat)

Because I told you before

Oh, you can’t do that

[Bridge]

Everybody's green

'Cause I'm the one who won your love

But if they'd seen

You talking that way

They'd laugh in my face

[Verse 3]

So please listen to me if you want to stay mine

I can’t help my feelings, I go out of my mind

I'm going to let you down (Let you down)

And leave you flat (Going to let you down and leave you flat)

Because I told you before

Oh, you can’t do that!

[Guitar Solo]

(You can't do that)

[Bridge]

Everybody's green

'Cause I'm the one who won your love

But if they'd seen

You talking that way

They'd laugh in my face

[Verse 4]

So please listen to me if you want to stay mine

I can’t help my feelings, I go out of my mind

I'm going to let you down (Let you down)

And leave you flat (Going to let you down and leave you flat)

Because I told you before

Oh, you can’t do that!
