Don't Forget Me, Martha My Dear

Today's Beatles Song of the day is: "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 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

This track comes from the White Album, and was written by Paul McCartney who was the only Beatle to appear on the track. The name Martha was taken from McCartney's English sheep dog who was also named Martha. The inspiration for the lyrics has been speculated to be Jane Asher .
