Via Rolling Stone:
A drug song masquerading as a love song, “Got to Get You Into My Life” was written after McCartney’s first experiments with marijuana. “It’s actually an ode to pot,” he explained, “like someone else might write an ode to chocolate or a good claret.”
Lennon described the song as...
[Verse 1]
I was alone, I took a ride
I didn't know what I would find there
Another road where maybe I
Could see another kind of mind there
Ooh, then I suddenly see you
Ooh, did I tell you I need you
Every single day of my life?
[Verse 2]

Another road where maybe I
Could see another kind of mind there
And suddenly I see you
Did I tell you I need you?
Every single day of my life?
