Get Back (Single Version) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Jojo was a man who thought he was a loner
But he knew it couldn't last
Jojo left his home in Tucson, Arizona
For some California grass
[Chorus]
Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back, Jojo
[Interlude]
Go home
[Chorus]
Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back, Jo
[Electric Piano Solo: Billy Preston]
[Verse 2]
Sweet Loretta Martin thought she was a woman
But she was another man
All the girls around her say she's got it coming
But she gets it while she can
[Chorus]
Oh, get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back, Loretta
[Guitar solo: John Lennon]
Hoo
Go home
[Chorus]
Oh, get back, yeah, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Yeah, get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Ooo
[Verse 3]
(Ooo, ow)
Get back, Loretta
Your mommy's waiting for you
Wearing her high-heel shoes
And her low-neck sweater
Get back home, Loretta
[Chorus]
Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Oh, get back, get back
[Outro]
Get back, oh yeah
Jojo
Loretta
