278: another fab-four favourite...

Hi.

Another fab-four favourite de moi...

First REAL COOL version I ever heard was the one by

Booker T & The M.G.'s on the McLemore Avenue from 1970.

Steve Cropper had it seriously going on

(like he did on every Booker T. album,

ofcourse, but this is besides the point[:-)

Obviously this song has been done a million times,

here a few to keep the fab-four flavour flowing...

-

Enjoy!

Here come old flat top

He come groovin' up slowly

He got joo joo eyeballs

He want holy rollers

He got hair down to his knees

Got to be a joker

He just do what he please

-

He wear no shoeshine

He got toe jam football

He got monkey finger

He shoot Coca Cola

He say I know you, you know me

One thing I can tell you is

You got to be free

Come together,

right now

Over me

-

He bag production

He got walrus gumboot

He got Ono sideboard

He one spinal cracker

He got feet down below his knees

Hold you in his armchair

You can feel his disease

Come together,

right now

Over me

-

He roller coaster

He got early warning

He got muddy water

He one Mojo filter

He say one and one and one is three

Got to be good looking'cause he's so hard to see

Come together,

right now

Over me

-

Come together, yeah

Come together, yeah

Come together, yeah

Come together, yeah
