"Baby, You're A Rich Man (Takes 11 And 12)" lyrics - THE BEATLES
[Intro: John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, George Martin]
One, two, three, four
[False start]
Wanna get in tune, George?
One, two, one, two, three, four
Is that how the beginning goes?
G to C, G to C, it goes
Should we just do, should we just do drums and piano on this one track?
Yeah, that guitar's a curse, man
Okay, and we'll get that all done after
Yeah
Union rules
Oh, we'd like some cokes Mal
And if you've got some cannabis resin-
Mal, some cokes, some cokes in here, Mal, Neil, Mal
Cannabis resin, too
Yeah, if you've got any cannabis, send it in
We've got that tape for the High Court tomorrow
Twelve
It puts you off when you know it's twelve
Oh my God, that was very loud in here
How does it feel to be one of the loudest people?
Alright, let's hear some rhythm and soul from London now please come along
How does it feel to be one of the beautiful people?
Now that you know who you are
What do you want to be?
And have you traveled very far?
Far as the eye can see
How does it feel to be one of the beautiful people?
How often have you been there?
Often enough to know
What did you see when you were there?
Nothing that doesn't show
[Chorus:]
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man too
You keep all your money in a big brown bag inside a zoo
What a thing to do
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man too
How does it feel to be one of the beautiful people?
Tuned to a natural E
Happy to be that way
Now that you've found another key
What are you going to play?
[Chorus:]
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man too
You keep all your money in a big brown bag inside a zoo
What a thing to do
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man too
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man too
Wow! Wow!
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man too
Wow!
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man too
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man too
Oh, baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man too
You're a rich
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man too
You're a rich man
Baby, you're a rich man
[Outro: John Lennon, Paul McCartney]
Alright, how did it, how did you feel about that, boys?
Well, you know, John, I mean, we felt swinging
I mean, we felt, swinging
I mean, we felt, swinging
I mean, we felt, swinging
Well do you want to hear it back now
Do you want to hear it back love
Yes, yes
Alright, we'll hear it back then
