Lyrics


Here come old flat top

He come groovin' up slowly

He got joo joo eyeballs

He one holy roller

He got hair down to his knee

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 bad production

He got walrus gumboot

He got Ono sideboard

He one spinal cracker

He got feet down below his knee

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

Come together, yeah

Come together, yeah

Come together, yeah

Come together, yeah

Come together, yeah



Songwriters: John Lennon / Paul Mccartney
