She says she loves me
all day and night
never grumbles or fusses,

Never running in the streets,
leaving me alone.
She's knows a woman's place
right back there hanging by the home.
Well I got a woman

oh yeah.
Well I've got a woman,
way across town,
She's good to me,

Well she's my baby
'cos she's understands
I'm her loving man.

she's good to me
oh yeah.
Says she's all right,
says she's all right.
I got a woman
way across town,
she's good to me
oh yeah.
I Got A Woman
The Beatles' rendition of 'I Got A Woman' on the 'Live At The Bbc' album captures the band's early electric R&B energy with a raw, garage-rock intensity. Recorded in 1962, the track showcases John Lennon's distinctive vocal delivery and Paul McCartney's rhythmic guitar work, blending the group's emerging sound with the soulful roots of the American blues tradition. This recording highlights the band's ability to adapt classic structures into their own dynamic style, serving as a pivotal moment in their transition from cover bands to original artists. The performance reflects the vibrant musical landscape of early 1960s Britain, where rock and roll was actively absorbing and reimagining the rhythms of the United States.
