GOLDEN SLUMBERS
(Lennon-McCartney)
1969


Paul's composition, written at his father's house in Cheshire.  "I came 
across the traditional tune 'Golden Slumbers' in a song book of Ruth's [his 
step sister].  And I thought it would be nice to write my own."



Once there was a way to get back homeward
Once there was a way to get back home
Sleep pretty darling do not cry and I will sing a lullaby
Golden slumbers fill your eyes smiles await you when you rise
Sleep pretty darling do not cry and I will sing a lullaby



Once there was a way to get backward
Once there was a way to get back home
Sleep pretty darling do not cry and I will sing a lullaby
