THIS BAND WAS YOUR BAND


This band was your band, this band was my band,

From the Ed Sullivan show, until that final blow,

We loved you Beatles, and we still do,

This band was made for me and you.


           Well, we all loved Ringo, their choice of drummers,

           They let him sing low, on a couple numbers,

           He was better than Best, when Peter was through,

           This band was made for me and you.


Then there was George, he played guitar,

Something in the way he grooved, made him a star,

On Norwegian Wood, he sitar-ed, too,

This band was made for me and you.


This band was your band, this band was my band,

From the Ed Sullivan show, until that final blow,

We loved you Beatles, and we still do,

This band was made for me and you.


           Then there was John, he was a poet,

           A Revolver killed him, and we all know it,

           To Let It Be, from Love Me Do

           This band was made for me and you.


          Then there was Paul, some say the cutest,

          Girls tore his clothes off, while he “Hey Jude” us,

          When he sprouted Wings, we bid adieu,

          This band was made for me and you.


This band was your band, this band was my band,

From the Ed Sullivan show, until that final blow,

We loved you Beatles, and we still do,

This band was made for me and you. – yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
