The Mess

Rating Comments Author Date
Average song rating Recorded live at a Wings European tour, this song apparently was unreleased until appearing as a bonus track some twenty years later. That really strikes me as weird, considering that it would have been one of the strongest songs (certainly the most rocking) on an otherwise vanilla album. Bruce Beatlefan May 26, 2006

Lyrics

You sailed away one night in june
I heard you say you would be back soon
But since that day it's been on long loon

Oh - sweet darling the mess I'm in

I spoke to jimmy with the big tattoo
Said had he seen any sign of you
He looked at me and then laughed at you
See just wait a minute, oh darling what a mess I'm in

When I want ya do I get ya
All I needed your number,
Will you give me your number

Oh sweet darling
Oh sweet darling
Oh - sweet darling what a mess I'm in
What a mess I'm in, since you left me
What a mess I'm in, oh yeah
Oh oh - oh oh wo - wo
Oh oh - oh wo,wo wo

When you're near me
Can you hear me
I can't see ya
I can feel ya
When you're near me
Can ya hear me.
