Tonight's ''Sing-a-Long Song of the Week'' could have been included in the 4th Hour a couple weeks ago when we did the music of November 1969.
It was a major #1 hit, but WAY too commonly heard.
We were going to feature this last week but ran out of time.
Tonight, we'll feature this, along with a "variation" that would qualify as the Beatles' "Rarity of the Week"
Here's the lyrics. Start practicing!
--------------------------
"Come Together" by The Beatles
Here come old flat-top, he come groovin' up slowly
He got ju-ju eyeball, he one holy roller
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
Right!
He roller-coaster, he got early warnin'
He got muddy water, he one mojo filter
He say, "One and one and one is three"
Got to be good-lookin' 'cause he's so hard to see
Come together, right now
Over me
Ugh!
Come together, yeah
Come together, yeah
Come together, yeah
Come together, yeah
Come together, yeah
Come together, yeah
Come together, yeah
Agh!
Come together, yeah
Come together, yeah
