A thing or two about our love
I know little girl
Only a fool would doubt our love
And all I gotta do
Is thank you girl, thank you girl

She Loves You

She loves you, yeh, yeh, yeh
She loves you, yeh, yeh, yeh
She loves you, yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh

You think you've lost your love
Well I saw her yesterday
It's you she's thinking of
And she told me what to say
She says she loves you
And you know that can't be bad
Yes, she loves you
And you know you should be glad

She said you hurt her so
She almost lost her mind
But now she says she knows
You're not the hurting kind
She says she loves you
And you know that can't be bad
Yes, she loves you
And you know you should be glad, ooh!

She loves you, yeh, yeh, yeh
She loves you, yeh, yeh, yeh
With a love like that
You know you should be glad

You know it's up to you
I think it's only fair
Pride can hurt you, too
Apologize to her
Because she loves you
And you know that can't be bad
Yes, she loves you
And you know you should be glad, ooh!

She loves you, yeh, yeh, yeh
She loves you, yeh, yeh, yeh
With a love like that

This Boy

That boy took my love away
He'll regret it someday
But this boy wants you back again

That boy isn't good for you
Though he may want you too
This boy wants you back again

Oh, and this boy would be happy
Just to love you, but oh my

Till he's seen you cry

This boy wouldn't mind the pain
Would always feel the same
If this boy gets you back again
This boy, this boy, this boy

Bad Boy

(Williams)  Lead vocal: Lennon


A bad little kid moved into my neighborhood
He won't do nothing right just sitting down and
 looks so good
He don't want to go to school and learn to read
 and write
Just sits around the house and plays the rock 
and roll music all night
Well, he put some tacks on teachers chair
Puts chewin' gum in little girl's hair
Hey, junior, behave yourself

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

Going tell your mama you better do what she said
Get to the barber shop and get that hair cut off
 your head
Threw the canary and you fed it to the neighbors cat
You gave the cocker spaniel a bath in mother's 
laundramat
Well, mama's head has got to stop
Junior's head is hard as rock
Now, junior, behave yourself

Yes It Is

(Lennon/McCartney)  Lead vocal: Lennon


If you wear red tonight
Remember what I said tonight
For red is the color that my baby wore
And what is more, it's true
Yes it is

Scarlet were the clothes she wore
Everybody knows I've sure
I would remember all the things we planned
Understand, it's true
Yes it is, it's true
Yes it is

I could be happy with you by my side
If I could forget her, but it's my pride
Yes it is, yes it is
Oh, yes it is, yeah

"Please don't wear red tonight"
This is what I said tonight
For red is the color that will make me blue
In spite of you, it's true
Yes it is, it's true
Yes it is

I could be happy with you by my side
If I could forget her, but it's my pride
Yes it is, yes it is
Oh, yes it is, yeah

"Please don't wear red tonight"
This is what I said tonight
For red is the color that will make me blue
In spite of you, it's true
Yes it is, it's true
Yes it is, it's true
