Whatever Gets You Thru The Night - John Lennon

Whatever gets you through the night 'salright, 'salright
It's your money or life 'salright, 'salright
Don't need a sword to cut through flowers oh no, oh no

Whatever gets you through your life 'salright, 'salright
Do it wrong or do it right 'salright, 'salright
Don't need a watch to waste your time oh no, oh no

Hold me darlin' come on listen to me
I won't do you no harm
Trust me darlin' come on listen to me, come on listen to me
Come on listen, listen

Whatever gets you to the light 'salright, 'salright
Out the blue or out of sight 'salright, 'salright
Don't need a gun to blow your mind oh no, oh no

Hold me darlin' come on listen to me
I won't do you no harm
Trust me darlin' come on listen to me, come on listen to me
Come on listen, listen

The Beatles - Bad Boy

The Beatles - Bad Boy

Copyright - 1965 EMI Records Ltd.

"Bad Boy" was a song written by Larry Williams. This is one of several Larry Williams songs which The Beatles covered. "Bad Boy", along with "Dizzy Miss Lizzy" were recorded by the Beatles on May 10, 1965 and intended for American release only (*). This song was first released on Beatles VI in June 1965. It eventually got a UK release on A Collection of Beatles Oldies in December 1966.[2]

(*) However, "Dizzy Miss Lizzy" was on the British "Help!" album that year.

The song features John Lennon on lead vocal and rhythm guitar, Paul McCartney on bass, George Harrison on double-tracked lead guitar, and Ringo Starr on drums.

"She said Yeah", (originally) the b-side of the single, was covered The Rolling Stones and The Animals among others

The Canadian progressive rock band Rush featured "Bad Boy" in a Led Zeppelin-type arrangement in their early live shows. The Cleveland bootleg "New in Town" features the song, as well as an extended solo from guitarist Alex Lifeson. Vocalist/bassist Geddy Lee introduces the song as being from the "Beatles VI" albums. After 1974, the group no longer performed the song.

Lyrics:
A bad little kid
moved into my neighborhood
He won't do nothing right
just a sitting got to look so good
He don't wanna go to school
and learn to read and write
Just sits around the house and plays
that rock and roll music all night
Well he put thumb tacks on teacher's chair
put chewing gum in little girl's hair
Now Junior behave yourself

Buys every rock and roll book
on the magazine stand
Every dime that he gets
oh he's off to the jukebox man
Well he worries that teacher
till at night she's aready to poop
From rocking and a rolling
spinning in a hula-hoop
Well his rock and roll has gotta stop
Junior's head is hard as rock
Now Junior behave yourself, ow

Gonna tell ya mamma
you'd better do what she said
Get to the barber shop
and get that hair cut off your head
You shoot the canary
and you fed it to the neighbor's cat
You have the cocker spaniel
a bathing mother's laundromat
Well ya mamma said it's gotta stop
Junior's head is hard as a rock
Now, Junior be have yourself, Ooo
