The Beatles - Two Of Us Lyrics

The Beatles Lyrics

"Two Of Us"

["I Dig A Pygmy" by Charles Hawtrey and the Deaf Aids. Phase one, in which Doris gets her oats.]

Two of us riding nowhere
Spending someone's
Hard earned pay
You and me Sunday driving
Not arriving
On our way back home
We're on our way home
We're on our way home
We're going home

Two of us sending postcards
Writing letters
On my wall
You and me burning matches
Lifting latches
On our way back home
We're on our way home
We're on our way home
We're going home

You and I have memories
Longer than the road that stretches out ahead

Two of us wearing raincoats
Standing solo
In the sun
You and me chasing paper
Getting nowhere
On our way back home
We're on our way home
We're on our way home
We're going home

You and I have memories
Longer than the road that stretches out ahead

Two of us wearing raincoats
Standing solo
In the sun
You and me chasing paper
Getting nowhere
On our way back home
We're on our way home
We're on our way home
We're going home

[We're going home, you better believe it. Goodbye.]

Thanks to tom for correcting these lyrics.

Writer(s): John Lennon, Paul McCartney

This song is about Paul McCartney and his wife Linda. They married several weeks after the song recording. Though many say that the song also is about the friendship between John Lennon and McCartney.

Most of the songs at that time were written and sung either by Lennon or McCartney, but this one is sung together.

"Two Of Us" is the title of the first original movie made by VH1.

The song has been covered several times, e.g. by Boney M. and Laibach.
