London Town

(McCartney/Laine)


Walking Down The Sidewalk One Purple Afternoon
I Was Accosted By A Barker
Playing A Simple Tune Upon His Flute
Toot toot toot toot
Silver Rain Was Falling Down
Upon The Dirty Ground Of London Town.

People Pass Me By On My Imaginary Street
Ordinary People It's Impossible To Meet
Holding Conversations That Are Always Incomplete
Well I Don't Know.
Oh, Where Are There Places To Go?
Someone, Somewhere Has To Know.
I'don't Know.

Out Of Work Again,The Actor Entertains His Wife
With The Same Old Stories Of His Ordinary Life.
Maybe He Exaggerates The Trouble And The Strife.
Well, I Don't Know.
Oh, Where Are There Places To Go?
Someone, Somewhere Has To Know.

Crawling Down The Pavement On A Sunday Afternoon,
I Was Arrested By A Rozzer
Wearing A Pink Balloon About His Foot.
Toot Toot Toot Toot.
Silver Rain Was Falling Down
Upon The Dirty Ground Of London Town.

Someone, Somewhere Has To Know.
Silver Rain Was Falling Down
Upon The Dirty Ground Of London Town.


Cafe On The Left Bank

(McCartney)


Cafe On The Left Bank, Ordinary Wine
Touching All The Girls With Your Eyes
Tiny Crowd Of Frenchmen Round A Tv Shop
Watching Charles De Gaulle Make A Speech

Dancing After Midnight, Sprawling To The Car
Continental Breakfast In The Bar
English-Speaking People Drinking German Beer
Talking Far Too Loud For Their Ears

Cafe On The Left Bank, Ordinary Wine
Touching All The Girls With Your Eyes

Dancing After Midnight, Crawling To The Car
Cocktail Waitress Waiting In The Bar
English-Speaking People Drinking German Beer
Talking Way Too Loud For Their Ears


I´m Carrying

(McCartney)


By Dawn's First Light I'll Come Back To Your Room Again
With My Carnation Hidden By The Packages
I'm Carrying, Something
I'm Carrying Something For You

Ah, Long Time No See Baby Sure Has Been A While
And If My Reappearance Lacks A Sense Of Style
I'm Carrying, Something
I'm Carrying Something For You

I'm Carrying.
I'm Carrying, Can't Help It.

I'm Carrying.
I'm Carrying Something For You.


Backwards Traveller

(McCartney)


Hey, Did You Know That I'm
Always Going Back In Time
Rhyming Slang, Auld Lang Syne My Dears
Through The Years

I Am The Backwards Traveller
Ancient Wool Unraveller
Sailng Songs, Wailing On The Moon

And We Were Sailing Songs, Wailing On The Moon
Wailing On The Moon.


Cuff Link

(McCartney)


Intrumental


Children Children

(McCartney/Laine)


I Know A Tyne Waterfall
A Magic Little Place
Where We Can Play Together
And Watch The Fishes Race

Children Children Where Are You
Hiding In The Forest Playing In The Rain
I Hope You Not Too Far Away
For Me To See Again

Well I Know Where There's A Fairy
Who Will Invite Us All To Tea
But She Won't Let Me In Alone
You'll Have To Come With Me

Children Children Where Are You
Hiding In The Forest Playing In The Rain
I Hope You Not Too Far Away
For Me To See Again

I Know A Tyne Waterfall
A Magic Little Place
Where We Can Play Together
And Watch The Fishes Race

Children Children Where Are You
Hiding In The Forest Playing In The Rain
I Hope You Not Too Far Away
For Me To See Again


Girlfriend

(McCartney)


Girlfriend I'm Gonna Tell Your Boyfriend
Tell Him Exactly What You're Doing
Tell Him What You Do To Me
Late At Night When The Wind Is Free

Girlfriend

Girlfriend I'm Gonna Show Your Boyfriend
Show Him The Letters I've Been Saving
Show Him How You Feel Inside
Then Our Love Couldn't Be Denied
And We're Gonna Have To Tell Him
You'll Only Be A Girlfriend Of Mine

Till The River Stop A-Flowin'
Till The Wind Doesn't Wanna Blow
Till The Flowers Stop A-Growin'
Till My Love Doesn't Want To Know

Girlfriend We'd Better Tell Your Boyfriend
Tell Him Exactly What We're Doing
Tell Him What He Needs To Know
Or He May Never Let You Go
Yes, We're Gonna Have To Tell Him
You'll Only Be A Girlfriend Of Mine

Till The River Stop A-Flowin'
Till The Wind Doesn't Wanna Blow
Till The Flowers Stop A-Growin'
Till The Ocean's A Sea Of Snow


I´ve Had Enough

(McCartney)


You're Talking To Me From The Back Of My Car
And I Can't Get Nothing Right
And Then You Wonder Why Stand At The Bar Day And Night

I've Had Enough
I Can't Put Up With Any More
No No No No No No
I've Had Enough
I Can't Put Up With Any More
No No No No No No

You Stand Behind Me With A Watch In Your Hand
And I Can't Get Nothing Done
Well, People Tell Me You're Punctual Man But Come On

I´ve Had Enough............

I Earn The Money And You Take It Away
When I Don't Know Where You're From
I Should Be Worried But They Say It'll Pay For A Bomb

I´ve Had Enough............

I've Had Enough

Baby You Know Sometimes You Get A Little Weary
But If It Ever Happens Honey
You Just Come Along To Me
Because You Know
I´ve Had Enough.............


With A Little Luck

(McCartney)


With A Little Luck, We Can Help It Out.
We Can Make This Whole Damn Thing Work Out.
With A Little Love, We Can Lay It Down.
Can't You Feel The Town Exploding?

There Is No End To What We Can Do Together.
There Is No End, There Is No End.
The Willow Turns His Back On Inclement Weather
And If He Can Do It, We Can Do It, Just Me And You,

And A Little Luck, We Can Clear It Up.
We Can Bring It In For A Landing,
With A Little Luck, We Can Turn It On.
There Can Be No Misunderstanding.
There Is No End To What We Can Do Together.
There Is No End, There Is No End.
The Willow Turns His Back On Inclement Weather
We Can Do It, Just Me And You.

With A Little Push, We Could Set It Off.
We Can Send It Rocketing Skywards.
With A Little Love, We Could Shake It Up.
Don't You Feel The Comet Exploding?

With A Little Luck.
With A Little Luck.
With A Little Luck, A Little Luck, A Little Luck.
With A Little Luck.
With A Little Luck.
With A Little Luck, A Little Luck, A Little Luck.


Famous Groupies

(McCartney)


All Stand Back, Let The People See
Take A Snap Of The Famous Groupies For Me

Behold The Famous Groupies
They Are Alike As Two Peas
And Where The Other Goes, The Other Goes
But Though The Famous Groupies
Are Only Paid In Rupies
Nobody Knows What The Famous Groupies Know
And Nobody Goes Where The Famous Groupies Go

There Was A Bango Player
Who Kept An Extra Layer
Of Dunlopillo Mattress In His Van
But When The Famous Groupies
Arrived With Their Twin Snoopies
Nobody Saw Which Way The Poor Boy Ran
Nobody Does It Like A Famous Groupie Can

All Stand Back, Let The People See
Take A Snap Of The Famous Groupies For Me

There Was A Lead Guitarist
Who Lived In Epping Forest
And All He Ever Wanted Was To Blow
When The Girls Were With Him
He Never Lost His Rhythm
And Nobody Knows What The Famous Groupies Know
Nobody Goes Where The Famous Groupies Go

There Was A Classic Story
Of A Roadic Nicknamed Rory
Who Used To Practice Voodoo On The Side
When The Famous Twosome
Suggested Something Gruesome
All That They Found Was A Crater Two Miles Wide
Which Left The Music Business Absolutely Horrified

Ladies And Gentlemen, Those Magnificent Examples Of
Female Pulchritude And Luminosity, Direct From Their
Global Perambulations To The Very Boards Of This
Supremely Magnificent Proscenium Arch - Ladies And
Gentlemen; I Give You Famous Groupies!


Deliver Your Children

(McCartney/Laine)


Well, The Rain Was A-Fallin'
And The Ground Turned To Mud
I Was Watching All The People
Running From The Flood
So I Starred To Payin'
Though I Ain't No Prayin' Man
For The Lord To Come A Helpin'
Knowing He'd Understand

Deliver Your Children To The Good Good Life
Give'em Peace And Shelter And A Fork And Knife
Shine A Light In The Morning And A Light At Night
And If A Thing Goes Wrong You'd Better Make It Right

Well, I Had A Woman
She Was Good And Clean
She Spent All Day With The Washing Machine
But When It Come To Lovin'
She Was Never Around
She Was Out Getting Dirty
All Over Town

Deliver Your Children........................

Well, I Was Low On Money
And My Truck Broke Down
I Was On My Way To The Lost And Found
So I Took It To A Dealer
I Said Make It Run
Well, I Ain't Got No Money
But I Got Me A Gun

I Said You Robbed Me Before
So I'm Robbing You Back
And If It Don't Put You Straight
It'll Put You On The Right Track
Well, I Ain't No Devil And I Ain't No Saint
But I Can Tell A Dealer By The Colour Of His Paint

Deliver Your Children.........................

If You Want Good Eggs
You Gotta Feed That Hen
And If You Wanna Hear Some More
Well, I'll Sing It Again


Name And Address

(McCartney)


Our Love Affair Was Over On The Second Day
You Packed A Bag And Like A Birdie Flew Away
Meanwhile I'm Sitting Here, I'm Getting In A Mess
If You Want My Love, Leave Your Name And Address

I Used To Love You Baby, When I Was Your Man
But Maybe Loving You Is Something No One Man Can Do
Meanwhile I'm Sitting Here, I'm Getting In A Mess
If You Want My Love, Leave Your Name And Address

Love To Feel The Tingle Of Your Heavenly Caresses
Love To Intermingle, A Lonely Single Without Addresses
If You Want My Love, Leave Your Name And Address

But If It's All Over Baby, You Know I'll Understand
Maybe I'll Hate To Think Of You With Another Man
Meanwhile I'm Sitting Here, I'm Getting In A Mess
If You Want My Love, Leave Your Name And Address


Don´t Let It Bring You Down

(McCartney/Laine)


Though Some Things In Life Are Hard To Bear
Don't Let It Bring You Down
Should The Sand Of Time Run Out On You
Don't Let It Bring You Down

Don't Go Down - Don't Go Underground
Things Seem Strange, But They Change
How They Change

Up And Down Your Carousel Will Go
Don't Let It Bring You Down

Don't Go Down - Don't Get Out Of Town
Get To Know How It Goes, How It Goes

When The Price You Have To Pay Is High
Don't Let It Bring You Down


Morse Moose And The Grey Goose

(McCartney/Laine)


Right On Down At The Bottom Of The Sea
Tell Me Are You Receiving Me?
My Name Is Morse Moose And I'm Calling You

The Grey Goose Was A Steady Boat
People Said She's Never Float
One Night When The Moon Was High
The Grey Goose Flew Away

As We Were Sailing 'Round The Rocks
The Mate Took Out His Compass Box
And Said The Wind Is Like A Fox
But The Grey Goose Flew Away

When Out Upon The Open Sea
The Admiral, The Mate And Me
Prepared To Face Eternity
But The Grey Goose Flew Away

She Flew Into The Stormy Sea
Davy Jones Was Calling Me
But Heading For Tranquility
The Grey Goose Flew Away
