The Word

By John T. Marck

This song is important as it was the first song by Lennon and McCartney that they wrote that contains only one note, recorded on November 10, 1965, fashioned after that of "Long Tall Sally." McCartney said that "to write a good song with just one note in like 'Long Tall Sally' is really very hard." Although it appears that this is about the love of a girl, but it is actually is not. The love that is spoken of is about freedom and light, enhanced by the use of LSD.

Say the word and you'll be free, Say the word and be like me

Say the word I'm thinking of, Have you heard the word is love?

It's so fine, It's sunshine, It's the word, love

In the beginning I misunderstood, But now I've got it, the word is good

Spread the word and you'll be free, Spread the word and be like be

Spread the work I'm thinking of, Have you heard the word is love?

It's so fine, It's sunshine, It's the word, love

Every where I go I hear it said, In the good and bad books that I have read

Give the word a chance to say, That the word is just the way

It's the word I'm thinking of, And the only word is love

It's so fine, It's sunshine, It's the word, love

Now that I know what I feel must be right, I'm here to show everybody the light

Say the word and you'll be free, Say the word and be like me

Say the word I'm thinking of, Have you heard the word is love?

It's so fine, It's sunshine, It's the word, love
