Fixing A Hole

By John T. Marck

Recorded at Regent Sound Studio, London, 0n February 9 & 21, 1967.The album version is mixed from take 3.Fixing A Hole, another believed to be about drugs, was really about a house that Paul bought in Scotland called High Park near the town of Campbeltown. This property, containing 400 acres had a house in very poor condition. Paul noticed the condition and a hole in the roof where the rain came in, and thus the song was conceived.

I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in, and stops my mind from wandering,

where it will go

I'm filling the cracks that ran though the door, and kept my mind from wandering,

where it will go

and it really doesn't matter if I'm wrong I'm right, where I belong I'm right,

where I belong

see the people standing there, who disagree and never win,

and wonder why they don't get in my door I'm painting my room in a colorful way,

and when my mind is wandering there I will go

and it really doesn't matter if I'm wrong I'm right, where I belong I'm right,

where I belong

silly people run around, they worry me, and never ask me why they don't get past my door

I'm taking my time for a number of things, that weren't important yesterday,

and I still go

I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in, and stops my mind from wandering,

where it will go, where it will go

I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in, and stops my mind from wandering,

where it will go
