What Goes On?

By John T. Marck

Ringo's first written contribution credit (with John& Paul) on an album was "What Goes On." Originally it was written early in 1963 by John, and was one of the songs The Beatles played for George Martin for consideration for a single as a follow up to "Please Please Me." The other songs The Beatles played this day for Martin were "From Me To You," "Thank You Girl," and "One After 909." As Ringo said when asked about co-writing a song, he replied, "I wrote about five words." It was recorded on November 4, 1965.

What goes on in your heart? What goes on in your mind?

You are tearing me apart, When you treat me so unkind

What goes on in your mind The other day I saw you,

As I walked along the road But when I saw him with you, I could feel my future fold

It's so easy for a girl like you to lie, Tell me why

What goes on in your heart? What goes on in your mind?

You are tearing me apart, When you treat me so unkind

What goes on in your mind I met you in the morning, waiting for the tides of time

But now the tide is turning, I can see that I was blind It's so easy for a girl like you to lie, Tell me why

What goes on in your heart? I used to think of no one else,

But you were just the same You didn't even think of me,

As someone with a name Did you mean to break my heart and watch me die, Tell me why

What goes on in your heart? What goes on in your mind?

You are tearing me apart, When you treat me so unkind

What goes on in your mind, in your mind, in your mind
