NORWEGIAN WOOD (By Lennon/McCartney, 1965. Sung by John).

I once had a girl

or should I say

she once had me

she showed me her room

isn't it good

Norwegian wood?

 

She asked me to stay

and she told me to sit anywhere

so I looked around

and I noticed there wasn't a chair.

 

I sat on a rug

biding my time

drinking her wine

we talked until two

and then she said

"It's time for bed".

 

She told me she worked in the morning

and started to laugh

I told her I didn't

and I crawled off to sleep in the bath.

 

And when I awoke

I was alone

this bird had flown

so I lit a fire

isn't it good

Norwegian Wood?
