    Hard to believe The Beatles made so much great music in such a relatively short space of time. Less than seven years. Unbelievable.

    The fact Paul helped John with this song, and much later on, helped Yoko repair her marriage to John following the "lost weekend," reveals so many sweet layers to their friendship. Paul was always a real friend to John and all the people touched by him, no matter what.

    Lyrics:
    "Standing in the dock at Southampton
    Tryin' to get to Holland or France
    The man in the mac said, "You've got to go back"
    You know, they didn't even give us a chance
    Christ, you know it ain't easy
    You know how hard it can be
    The way things are going
    They're going to crucify me
    Finally made the plane into Paris
    Honey mooning down by the Seine
    Peter Brown called to say
    "You can make it OK
    You can get married in Gibraltar, near Spain"
    Christ, you know it ain't easy
    You know how hard it can be
    The way things are goin'
    They're going to crucify me
    Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton
    Talking in our beds for a week
    The newspapers said, "Say what you doing in bed?"
    I said, "We're only trying to get us some peace"
    Christ, you know it ain't easy
    You know how hard it can be
    The way things are goin'
    They're going to crucify me
    Saving up your money for a rainy day
    Givin' all your clothes to charity
    Last night the wife said, "Oh boy, when you're dead
    You don't take nothing with you but your soul
    Think"
    Made a lightning trip to Vienna
    Eating chocolate cake in a bag
    The newspapers said, "She's gone to his head
    They look just like two gurus in drag"
    Christ, you know it ain't easy
    You know how hard it can be
    The way things are goin'
    They're going to crucify me
    Caught the early plane back to London
    50 acorns tied in a sack
    The men from the press said, "We wish you success
    It's good to have the both of you back"
    Christ, you know it ain't easy
    You know how hard it can be
    The way things are goin'
    They're going to crucify me
    The way things are goin'
    They're going to crucify me"

      He and Lennon both as well as the Beatles in general were genius at harmonizing. I agree totally with you on this. I love the song which song wrote on his own...but Paul's contribution in playing drums and the bass are great and his harmonizing at the end just adds a heavy bit of icing to the cake. I just love his harmonizing at the end of the song. And I'm not a big McCarthney fan either. Still...his bass playing on this song is amazing and his drumming works. It's a great song and John and Paul once again display their genius in how the were able to immediately record with just themselves doing it all. Peace.

      Paul's famous Hoffner bass. When they first came to the U.S. and were on Ed Sullivan (old black and white TV in the early '60's; I'm 69 now!) I was just a kid who liked them a lot. I later in my teens became a big fan. Anyhow, I often wandered why Paul played his guitar on the "opposite side" of everyone else. Someone told me he was a "leftie" and that's how lefties play a guitar. A few years later and and still a big fan, I almost wore out my 8 track tape (anyone remember those?) of "Abbey Road".

It was a great session, one of those magic times when everything went right and nothing went wrong. The whole record was completed in just a few hours, from start to finish, including the mix --- just like the good old days.... they made for a great two-man band. It was so refreshing to see Paul and John in good spirits and not arguing."

When they did the anthology series in 1994, Paul, George and Ringo came together and added instrumental and vocal overdubs to two John songs, Free As A Bird and Real Love. So basically it was like a Beatles reunion and a tribute to John, even though he was gone, his voice was still there.
      Also Ringo and Paul later did a cover of John’s song “Grow Old With Me”. They were originally thinking of doing this for the anthology but sadly decided not to go through with it.

    The newspapers said, "Say what you doing in bed?"
    I said, "We're only trying to get us some peace"
    Christ, you know it ain't easy
    You know how hard it can be
    The way things are goin'
    They're going to crucify me
    Saving up your money for a rainy day
    Givin' all your clothes to charity
    Last night the wife said, "Oh boy, when you're dead
    You don't take nothing with you but your soul
    Think"
    Made a lightning trip to Vienna
    Eating chocolate cake in a bag
    The newspapers said, "She's gone to his head
    They look just like two gurus in drag"

    You know how hard it can be
    The way things are goin'

    Caught the early plane back to London
    50 acorns tied in a sack
    The men from the press said, "We wish you success

      Hell it was a number 1 hit in 1969. Coming up on 50 years old in May 2019. But if you just discovered it and the Beatles your in for a treat. Hey Bulldog is another one that is catchy and that's only a scratch of what they recorded as a group, plus what they did ķ
