Please, Please Me

Lyrics: Lennon, McCartney
Music: Lennon, McCartney

I've seen references to the Grateful Dead having soundchecked this on 26 March 1995. I think this is a mistake. There is some banter during the attempt at "Paperback Writer" where someone refers to doing a simpler Beatles song, and someone else suggests "Please Please Me". But there's no evidence they actually played it.

It was played by the Vince Welnick Band in 2004.

Last night I said these words to my girl
I know you never even try, girl
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Please please me, whoa yeah, like I please you.

You don't need me to show the way, love
Why do I always have to say "love"
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Please please me, whoa yeah, like I please you.

I don't wanna sound complainin'
But you know there's always rain in my heart (in my heart)
I do all the pleasin' with you, it's so hard to reason
With you, whoah yeah, why do you make me blue

Last night I said these words to my girl
I know you never even try, girl
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Please please me, whoa yeah, like I please you
