Lyrics[edit | edit source]
Canto I: Day Tripper
Day tripper - day tripper - day tripper
Got a good reason - for taking the easy way out
Got a good reason - for taking the easy way out now
She was a day tripper - one way ticket yeah
It took me so long - to find out - and I found out
She's a big teaser - she took me half the way there
She's a big teaser - she took me half the way there now
She was a day tripper - one way ticket yeah
It took me so long - to find out - and I found out
Canto II: If I Needed Someone
If I needed someone to love - you're the one that I try be thinking of
If I needed someone
If I had some more time to spend - then I guess I'd be with you my friend
If I needed someone
Got your number on my wall - and maybe you will get a call from me
If I need someone
Canto III: Day Tripper (revisited)
Day tripper - day tripper - day tripper
I tried to please her - she only played one night stands
I tried to please her - but she only played one night stands now
She was a day tripper - Sunday driver yeah
It took me so long - to find out and I found out
Canto IV: I Want You (She's So Heavy)
She's so
Heavy
Heavy heavy heavy
She's so
Heavy
Heavy heavy heavy
She's so
Heavy
Heavy heavy heavy
She's so
Heavy
Heavy heavy heavy
