A Hard Day's Night

A Hard Day's Night, '64

  • A Hard Day's Night
  • I Should Have Known Better
  • If I Fell
  • I'm Happy Just To Dance With You
  • And I Love Her
  • Tell Me Why
  • Can't Buy Me Love
  • Any Time At All

  • When I Get Home
  • You Can't Do That

    A Hard Day's Night (Lennon/McCartney)

    It's been a hard day's night, and I've been working like a dog
    It's been a hard day's night, I should be sleeping like a log
    But when I get home to you I'll find the things that you do
    Will make me feel alright

    You know I work all day to get you money to buy you things
    And it's worth it just to hear you say you're going to give me everything
    So why on earth should I moan, 'cause when I get you alone
    You know I feel ok

    When I'm home everything seems to be right
    When I'm home feeling you holding me tight, tight

    Owww!

    So why on earth should I moan, 'cause when I get you alone
    You know I feel ok

    You know I feel alright
    You know I feel alright

    I Should Have Known Better (Lennon/McCartney)

    I should have known better with a girl like you
    That I would love everything that you do
    and I do, hey, hey, hey, and I do

    Whoa, oh, I never realized what a kiss could be
    This could only happen to me
    can't you see, can't you see

    That when I tell you that I love you, oh
    You're gonna say you love me too, oh
    And when I ask you to be mine
    you're gonna say you love me too

    You love me too, you love me too

    If I Fell (Lennon/McCartney

    If I fell in love with you
    Would you promise to be true
    And help me understand
    'cause I've been in love before
    And I found that love was more
    Than just holding hands

    If I give my heart to you
    I must be sure
    From the very start
    That you would love me more than her

    If I trust in you oh please
    Don't run and hide
    If I love you too oh please
    Don't hurt my pride like her
    'cause I couldn't stand the pain
    And I would be sad if our new love was in vain

    So I hope you see that I
    Would love to love you
    And that she will cry
    When she learns we are two

    If I fell in love with you

    I'm Just Happy to Dance with You (Lennon/McCartney)

    Before this dance is through
    I think I love you too
    I'm so happy when you dance with me
    I don't want or need to hold your hand
    Well it's only try and understand
    'cause there's really nothing I would rather do
    'cause I'm happy just to dance with you

    I don't need to kiss or hold you tight
    I just want to dance with you all night
    In this world there's nothing I would rather do
    'cause I'm happy just to dance with you
    Just to dance with you
    It's everything I need

    Before this dance is through
    I think I love you too
    I'm so happy when you dance with me
    If somebody tries to take my place
    Let's pretend we just can't see his face
    In this world there's nothing I would rather do
    'cause I'm happy just to dance with you
    Just to dance with you
    It's everything I need

    Before this dance is through
    I think I love you too
    I'm so happy when you dance with me
    If somebody tries to take my place
    Let's pretend we just can't see his face
    In this world there's nothing I would rather do
    'cause I'm happy just to dance with you
    Just to dance with you
    It's everything I need

    I discovered I'm in love with you
    'cause I'm happy just to dance with you

    And I Love Her (Lennon/McCartney)

    I give her all my love
    That's all I do
    And if you saw my love
    You'd love her too
    I love her

    She gives me everything
    And tenderly
    The kiss my lover brings
    She brings to me
    And I love her

    A love like ours
    Could never die
    As long as I
    Have you near me

    Bright are the stars that shine
    Dark is the sky
    I know this love of mine
    Will never die
    And I love her

    Bright are the stars that shine
    Dark is the sky
    I know this love of mine
    Will never die
    And I love her

    Tell Me Why (Lennon/McCartney)

    Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me
    Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me

    Well I gave you everything I had
    But you left me sitting on my own
    Did you have to treat me oh so bad
    All I do is hang my head and moan

    Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me
    Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me

    If there's something I have said or done
    Tell me what and I'll apologize
    If you don't really can't go on
    Holding back these tears in my eyes

    Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me
    Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me

    Well I beg you on my bended knees
    If you'll only listen to my pleas
    Is there anything I can do
    'cause I really can't stand it, I'm so in love with you

    Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me

    Can't Buy Me Love (Lennon/McCartney)

    Can't buy me love, love
    Can't buy me love

    I'll buy you a diamond ring my friend if it makes you feel alright
    I'll get you anything my friend if it makes you feel alright
    'Cause I don't care too much for money, money can't buy me love

    I'll give you all I got to give if you say you love me too
    I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you
    I don't care too much for money, money can't buy me love

    Can't buy me love, everybody tells me so
    Can't buy me love, no no no, no

    Say you don't need no diamond ring and I'll be satisfied
    Tell me that you want the kind of thing that money just can't buy
    I don't care too much for money, money can't buy me love

    Any time at all , all you gotta do is call

    I'll Cry Instead (Lennon/McCartney)

    I've got every reason on earth to be mad
    'cause I've just lost the only girl I had
    If I could get my way
    I'd get myself locked up today
    But I can't so I cry instead

    I've got a chip on my shoulder that's bigger than my feet
    I can't talk to people that I meet
    If I could see you now
    I'd try to make you sad somehow
    But I can't so I cry instead

    Don't want to cry when there's people there
    I get shy when they start to stare
    I'm gonna hide myself away
    But I'll come back again someday

    And when I do you'd better hide all the girls
    I'm gonna break their hearts all 'round the world
    Yes, I'm gonna break them in two
    And show you what your loving man can do
    Until then I'll cry instead

    Things We Said Today (Lennon/McCartney)

    You say you will love me
    If I have to go
    You'll be thinking of me
    Somehow I will know

    Someday when I'm lonely
    Wishing you weren't so far away
    Then I will remember
    The things we said today

    You say you'll be mine, girl
    Until the end of time
    These days such a kind girl
    Seems so hard to find

    Someday when we're dreaming
    Deep in love, not a lot to say
    Then we will remember
    The things we said today

    Me, I'm just the lucky kind
    Love to hear you say that love is love
    And, though we may be blind
    Love is here to stay, and that's enough

    To make you mine, girl
    Be the only one
    Love me all the time, girl
    We'll go on and on

    Someday when we're dreaming
    Deep in love, not a lot to say
    Then we will remember
    The things we said today

    When I Get Home (Lennon/McCartney)

    Whoa-ho, I.....whoa-ho, I.....
    I got a whole lot of things to tell her
    When I get home

    Come on, out my way
    'cause I'm a'gonna see my baby today
    I've got a whole lot of things I've gotta say
    To her

    Whoa, oh, I.....whoa, oh, I.....
    I got a whole lot of things to tell her
    When I get home

    Come on if you please
    I've got no time for trivialities
    I've got a girl who's waiting home for me
    tonight

    Whoa, oh, I.....whoa, oh, I.....
    I got a whole lot of things to tell her
    When I get home

    When I'm getting home tonight,
    I'm gonna hold her tight
    I'm gonna love her till the cows come home
    I bet I'll love her more
    Till I walk out that door
    Again

    Come on, let me through
    I've got so many things, I've got to do
    I've got no business being here with you
    This way

    Whoa, oh, I.....whoa, oh, I.....
    I've got a whole lot of things to tell her
    When I get home

    You Can't Do That (Lennon/McCartney)

    I got something to say that might cause you pain
    If I catch you talking to that boy again I'm gonna let you down
    And leave you flat,
    Because I told you before, oh
    You can't do that

    Well, it's the second time I've caught you talking to him
    Do I have to tell you one more time, I think it's a sin
    I think I'll let you down
    Let you down and leave you flat
    (Gonna let you down and leave you flat)
    Because I've told you before, oh
    You can't do that

    Everybody's green
    'cause I'm the one who won your love
    But if it's seen
    You're talking that way they'd laugh in my face

    So please listen to me if you wanna stay mine
    I can't help my feelings, I'll go out of my mind

    I know I'll let you down
    And leave you flat
    (Gonna let you down and leave you flat)
    Because I've told you before, oh
    You can't do that

    I'll Be Back (Lennon/McCartney)

    You know if you break my heart I'll go
    But I'll be back again
    'cause I told you once before goodbye
    But I came back again

    I love you so
    I'm the one who wants you
    Yes I'm the one who wants you
    oh ho, oh ho, oh

    You could find better things to do
    Than to break my heart again
    This time I will try to show that I'm
    Not trying to pretend

    I thought that you would realize
    That if I ran away from you
    Then you would want me too
    But I got a big surprise
    oh ho, oh ho, oh

    You could find better things to do
    Than to break my heart again
    This time I will try to show that I'm
    Not trying to pretend

    I wanna go
    But I hate to leave you
    You know I hate to leave you
    oh ho, oh ho, oh

    You, if you break my heart I'll go
    But I'll be back again
