The Beatles - Martha My Dear Lyrics

The Beatles Lyrics

"Martha My Dear"

Martha my dear though I spend my days in conversation
Please
Remember me Martha my love
Don't forget me Martha my dear

Hold your head up you silly girl look what you've done
When you find yourself in the thick of it
Help yourself to a bit of what is all around you
Silly girl

Take a good look around you
Take a good look you're bound to see
That you and me were meant to be for each other
Silly girl

Hold your hand out you silly girl see what you've done
When you find yourself in the thick of it
Help yourself to a bit of what is all around you
Silly girl

Martha my dear you have always been my inspiration
Please
Be good to me Martha my love
Don't forget me Martha my dear

Martha was Paul McCartney's dog who was named after McCartney's muse. The muse was described in the book "A Hard Day's Write" as a voice in his head that tells him what to write.

Martha, Paul McCartney's dog, lived up until 1981, but one of Martha's progenies can be seen at the cover of the album "Paul Is Live" (1993).
