"Helter Skelter (Second Version / Take 17)" lyrics - THE BEATLES
[Intro: Paul McCartney, Engineer]
Even though it may not be singing it, moving on
Don't just try to "When I get to the bottom I-" and then just imagine it
Have extra on the first one, so it's like
Well!
Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, ooh
Helter Skelter take 17
One, two, three, four
[Bridge:]
Oh, when I get to the bottom I go back to the top of the hill
Where I stop and I turn and I give you a thrill
Then I get to the bottom and I see you again, yeah yeah yeah
Well, do you, don't you want me to love you
I'm coming down fast, but I'm miles above you
Tell me, tell me, tell me the answer
You may be a lover, but you ain't no dancer
[Chorus:]
Oh, look out
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Oh, Helter Skelter
Woo
Well, will you, won't you want me to make you
I'm coming down fast, but don't let me break you
Well, tell me, tell me, tell me the answer
You may be a lover, but you ain't no dancer
[Chorus:]
Woo, look out
Helter skelter
Well, helter skelter
Helter skelter
Woo, woo woo woo woo woo woo!
Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo!
[Bridge:]
Well, get to the bottom nanananana thrill
Then I get to the bottom and I see you again, yeah, yeah
Do you, don't you want me to love you
Well, coming down fast, but I'm miles above you
Ah, tell me, tell me, tell me the answer
You may be a lover, but you ain't no dancer
[Chorus:]
Ooh, na-na
Helter skelter
Oh, helter skelter
Oh, helter skelter
Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo!
Ooh
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Oh, look out
[Outro: Paul McCartney]
Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo
Keep that one, mark it fab
