Old Brown Shoe (demo, take 2, RS'82) Songtext
von The Beatles

I want a love that′s right
But right is only half of what's wrong
I want a short haired girl
Sometimes wears it twice as long
Now I′m stepping out of this old brown shoe
Baby, I'm in love with you
I'm so glad you came here, it won′t be the same now
I′m telling you

You know you pick me up
From where some try to drag me down
When I see your smile
Replacing every thoughtless frown
Got me escaping from this zoo
Baby, I'm in love with you
I′m so glad you came here, it won't be the same now
I′m telling you


If I grow up I'll be a singer
Wearing rings on every finger
Not worrying what they or you say
I′ll live and love and maybe someday
Who knows, baby, you may comfort me

I may appear to be imperfect
But my love is something you can't reject
I'm changing faster than the weather
If you and me should get together
Who knows, baby, you may comfort me

I want that love of yours
To miss that love is something I′d hate
Take an early start
I′m making sure that I'm not late
For your sweet top lip I′m in the queue
Baby, I'm in love with you
I′m so glad you came here, it won't be the same now
I′m telling you
I'm so glad you came here, it won't be the same now
When I′m with you
