LET 'EM IN
By Paul McCartney

Someone's knocking at the door,
Somebody's ringing the bell,
Someone's knocking at the door,
Somebody's ringing the bell,
Do me a favour, open the door
And let 'em in, uh yeah.

Do me a favour, open the door
And let 'em in, yeah, let 'em in.

Sister Suzie, brother John,
Martin Luther, Phil and Don,
Uncle Ernie, auntie Jin,
Open the door, let 'em in, oh yeah.

Do me a favour, open the door
And let 'em in, oh yeah, yeah, let 'em in now.

Sister Suzie, brother John,
Martin Luther, Phil and Don, ooh-ooh, Uncle Ernie, uncle Ian, ooh-ooh,
Open the door, let 'em in, oh yeah-yeah.

Do me a favour, open the door
And let 'em in, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.


THE NOTE YOU NEVER WROTE
By Paul McCartney

Later on, the story goes,
A bottle floated out to sea,
After days when it had found the perfect spot,
It opened up.

And I read the note
That you never wrote
To me.

After all, I'm sure you know,
The mayor of Baltimore is here,
After days, now he can finally appear,
Now at last he's here.

But he never is gonna get my vote,
'Cause he never is gonna get a quote,
From the little note that you never wrote to me.

To me (to me), to me.

Further on, along the line,
I was arrested on the shore,
Holding papers of governments galore,
I was taken in.

But I read the note that you never wrote,
Yes, I read the note that you never wrote,
Oh, I read the note that you never wrote to me.


SHE'S MY BABY
By Paul McCartney

My baby,
She comes out at night,
She's takin' me by surprise,
She's my baby.

Like gravy,
Down to the last drop,
I keep moppin' her up, yeh, yeh,
She's my baby.

She's a baby in the morning time
When the sleep is in her eyes,
And the world is waking up, she has a rhythm,
Oh, believe me, I ain't lying.
She's a woman.

She's a lady in the evening tide,
When the stars are in the skies
That's the time she changes back into a kitten,
Oh, believe me, I ain't lying.

She's my baby
And she comes out at night,
She's takin' me by surprise,
She's my baby.

She's the lady of the evening tide,
When the stars are in the skies
That's the time she changes back into a kitten,
Oh, believe me, I ain't lying.


BEWARE MY LOVE
By Paul McCartney

Can't say, found out,
Can't tell you what it's all about.
Don't know who does tell you to beware, my love,
Beware, my love, beware, my love, uh, uh.
Beware, my love, beware, my love, beware, my love.

Well, well, well,
No, no, no,
I must be wrong, baby, yeah.
But I don't believe that he's the one,
But you insist, I must be wrong.
I must be wrong!
I have to leave and when I'm gone,
I'll leave my message in my song.

That's right!

Yeh, beware, my love, well, he'll bowl you over,
Beware, my love, before you're much older.
Well, he'll sweep you up under his carpet,
You'd be in luck if you can stop it.

Come on now!

Beware, my love!

Let me tell you,
Well, he'll wear you out and in a minute,
You'll hear a shout and then you'll be in it.
So, so, now, beware, my love, yeh,
'Cause he'll take you under,
Beware, my love, that sound of his thunder, yeah.

That's where I'm gonna leave it, baby!

Come on,
Beware, my love, 'cause you'll know he'll bowl you over,
Beware, my love, before you're much older.
He's gonna, yes, he's gonna wear you out
And in a minute, you'll hear a shout
And then you'll be in it.

Baby, gonna beware, yeh, beware, yeh, beware, oh,
Baby, beware, beware, beware, my love,
Yeah, any minute, oh, whoa!
I don't know if I can stand it any more!
That some jerk's gonna say to you, my love,
That you better be there.

Can't say, found out, tell you to
Beware, my love, beware my love...


WINO JUNKO
By Jimmy McCulloch and Colin Allen

Doctor Tom is getting on,
All he does is signs his name.
I get things, my brainbox sings,
But I'll go down again.

Play with fire, getting higher,
Higher than a nine foot flame.
My soul is spent and so's the rent,
But I'll go down again.

Wino Junko, can't say no,
Wino Junko, eyes aglow.
Pill freak, spring a leak, you can't say no,
Till you go down again.
This and that, you crazy cat,
Flying sideways once again.
I'm in a spin, it makes me grin,
But I'll go down again.

Till you go down (till you go down) again,
Till you go down again.
Till you go down.

Take what I need until I bleed,
People will say I've gone insane.
Ain't scared to die, it's such a high,
Till I go down again.

Again, again, again, again, again, again, again...

Wino Junko...


SILLY LOVE SONGS
By Paul McCartney

You'd think that people would have had enough of silly love songs,
But I look around me and I see it isn't so.
Some people wanna fill the world with silly love songs,
And what's wrong with that?
I'd like to know, 'cause here I go again.

I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you.

I, I can't explain, the feeling's plain to me
I love you
Now can't you see?
Ah, she gave me more, she gave it all to me,
I love you
Now can't you see?
What's wrong with that?
I need to know, 'cause here I go again.

Love doesn't come in a minute,
Sometimes it doesn't come at all.
I only know that when I'm in it,
It isn't silly, no, it isn't silly,
Love isn't silly at all, yeh, yeh.

How can I tell you about my loved one?
Linda: I love you
Paul: How can I tell you about my loved one?
Linda: I love you

Linda: I, I can't explain, the feeling's plain to me,
Paul: I love you,
Linda: Say can't you see?
Linda: Ah, he gave me more, he gave it all to me,
Paul: I love you,
Linda: Say can't you see?
Linda: I, I can't explain, the feeling's plain to me,
Denny: How can I tell you about my loved one?
Paul: I love you,
Linda: Say can't you see?
Linda: Ah, he gave me more, he gave it all to me,
Denny: How can I tell you about my loved one?
Paul: I love you,
Linda: Say can't you see?
Linda: I, I can't explain, the feeling's plain to me,
Denny: How can I tell you about my loved one?
Paul: I love you,
Linda: Say can't you see?
Linda: Ah, he gave me more, he gave it all to me,
Denny: How can I tell you about my loved one?
Paul: I love you,
Linda: Say can't you see?

You'd think that people would have had enough of silly love songs,
But I look around me and I see it isn't so, oh no.
Some people wanna fill the world with silly love songs,
And what's wrong with that?

COOK OF THE HOUSE
By Paul McCartney

Ah, you're rockin' it cat!
Come on!
Oh!

Ground rice, sugar, vinegar, seco salt, macaroni too,
Cook of the house,
I'm the cook of the house.

No matter where I serve my guests,
They seem to like the kitchen best,
'Cause I'm the cook of the house,
Cook of the house.

The salad's in the bowl,
The rice is on the stove,
Green beans in the colander
And where the rest is heaven only knows.

Cinnamon, garlic, salt, pepper, cornbread, curry powder, coffee too,

Cook of the house,
I'm the cook of the house.

And where the rest is heaven only knows.

Cook of the house (she's the cook of the house),
Cook of the house (I'm the cook of the house),
I'm the cook of the house.

Take it, fellas!


TIME TO HIDE
By Denny Laine

If I have to run, I'm not runnin' out on you.
If I have to shake a little sand out of my shoes.
I'm runnin' from the law or they'll put me inside.

Baby, won't you let me have a little time to hide?
Baby, won't you let me have a little time to hide?

I've been on the run since the good lord knows when.
And the day I die, I'll still be runnin' then.
Runnin' from the days when I would lay me down and cry.

Will I love you tomorrow? (yes, I will)
My love (yes, I will),
My love.
Will I beg, steal or borrow?
Yes, I will (my love),
Oh, yes, I will (my love)
To spend a little time,
Happy to be by your side.

If I have to run (if I have to run),
I'm not runnin' out on you (runnin' out on you).
If I have to shake a little sand out of my shoes (sand in my shoes).
I'm runnin' from the law or they will put me inside.


MUST DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT
By Paul McCartney

I've just seen another sunset on my own,
All day long I've been 'lone.
And I must do something about it,
Yes, I must do something about it.

Played another losing card game with myself,
Lonely joker on the shelf.

No one on the party line,
No one seems to need a dime,
No one even knows that I'm feeling this way.

No one seems to need my vote,
No one has to change a note,
No one here to hold my coat, oh what a day, oh-oh.

I've just watched another movie on TV,
No one's in the house but me.

Oh, oh, oh,
Oh, oh, oh,
Something about it.

I've just dialled another number on my phone,
All day long I've been 'lone.


SAN FERRY ANNE
By Paul McCartney

You've got a lot,
And from what you've got
I'd say you're doing well, dear.
Dressed like a dream,
And if things are what they seem,
You're doing swell, dear.

Your little man (your little man)
Brings you trinkets when he can,
But he can't stay, dear.
That's very well (that's very well),
But inside your shiny shell
You dance all day, dear.

So go be gay (so go be gay),
Let your feelings leap away into the laughter.
San ferry Anne (san ferry Anne),
And the world keeps turning happy ever after.


WARM AND BEAUTIFUL
By Paul McCartney

A love so warm and beautiful,
Stands when time itself is falling.
A love so warm and beautiful,
Never fades away.

Love, faith and hope are beautiful,
When your world is touched by sadness.
To each his own is wonderful,
Love will never die.

Sunlight's morning glory,
Tells the story of our love.
Moonlight on the water brings me
Inspiration ever after.


SALLY G.
By Paul McCartney

Somewhere to the south of New York City
Lies the friendly state of Tennessee.
Down in Nashville town I met a pretty,
Who made a pretty big fool out of me.

And they call her Sally, Sally G.,
Why d'you wanna do the things you do to me?
You're my Sally, Sally G.,
You took the part that was the heart of me,
Sally G.

The nightlife took me down to Printers Alley,
Where Sally sang a song behind the bar.
I ran my eyes across her as she sang a tangled mime,
I used to love to hear her sweet guitar.

Me and Sally took up,
Things began to look up,
Me and her were going strong.
Then she started lyin',
I could see our love was dyin',
I heard a voice say, "Move along, move along".

Well, now I'm on my own again, I wonder,
If she ever really understood.
I never thought to ask her what the letter 'G' stood for,
But I know for sure it wasn't 'good'.

Take it, chaps!

Sally G.

Yeah, Sally G.
