they tell me in sweet fragrant meadows of dawn and dew.
There was love all around but I never heard it singing
no, I never heard it at all till there was you.
Till there was you.un tema de Meredith Wilson, cantado por Paul - The Sheik of Araby

I'm the sheik of Araby.
Well I'm the sheik of Araby,
your love belongs to me

- My tears are falling
'cause you've taken her away
and though it really hurts me so
there something that I got to say.
Take good care of my baby
please don't ever make her blue
just tell her that you love her
make sure you're thinking of her
in everything you say and do.
Take good care of my baby
now don't you ever make her cry
just let your love surround her
paint rainbows all around her
don't let her see the cloudy sky.
Once upon a time
that little girl was mine
if I had been true
I know she'd never been with you.
So take good care of my baby
be just as kind as you can be
and if you should discover
that you don't really love her
just send my baby back home to me.

only that I miss her and all the fun we had
we were pulled apart because her ma would not agree

with hurry homedrops on her cheek that trickled from her eye
Marie is only six years old, information please

swinging their hips,
splitting up a bag of potatoe chips
I think cool cats really did flip
three cool chicks.
Three cool chicks.
well up came that first cool cat,
he said: man look at that.
man, do you see what I see?
well I want that middle chick
I want that little chick.
hey man save once chick for me.
Three cool chicks.
Well they love like angels from up above
and three cool cats really fell in love.
and three cool chicks made three fools out of
three cool cats.

The Decca Tapes no es un disco oficial sino un bootleg que circuló durante muchos años y algunas de cuyas canciones fueron incluidas tardiamente en las recopilaciones llamadas Anthology.
El disco incluye los quince temas que se grabaron en enero de 1962 como audición en los Decca Studios de Londres y que terminó siendo rechazada ya que, los ejecutivos encargados de la empresa entendieron que The Beatles no tenían futuro en el negocio de la música.
Todos los temas son interpretados por John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison y Pete Best.
