Lyrics for Album: In The Beginning [1961]
Hey mama, don't you treat me wrong,
Come and love your daddy all night long.
All right now, hey-hey, all right.
See the girl with the diamond ring,
She knows how to shake that thing.
All right now, now, now, hey-hey, hey-hey.
Tell your mama, tell your pa,
I'm gonna send you back to arkansas.
Oh, yes, ma'am. you don't do right,

Come on, baby, see about me.

What'd I Say
Released on The Beatles' 1961 compilation In The Beginning, 'What'd I Say' stands as a pivotal moment in the band's early evolution. Recorded during the group's formative years, the track showcases a raw, energetic performance that blends rock and roll with emerging R&B influences. The song features a distinctive, repetitive vocal hook that became a signature element of The Beatles' live and studio recordings. Its inclusion on this compilation highlights the band's growing confidence and musical versatility before their transition to the polished sound of the mid-1960s. As one of their earliest recorded tracks, it serves as a testament to the group's roots in the Liverpool scene and their rapid development as a recording act. |
