John Lennon, Paul McCartney
I've got a good reason
For taking the easy way out
I got a good reason
For taking the easy way out
She was a day tripper
One way ticket, yeah
It took me so
So long to find out but I found out
Now she's a big teaser
She took me half the way there
She's a big teaser
She took me half the way there
It was a day tripper
Sunday driver now
It took me so
So long but you know I found out
You can try to please her
She only plays one night stands
You can try just to please her
She only plays one night stands
She was a day tripper
One way baggage, yeah
It took me so
So long, well you know that I found out
(When I found out, when found out)
I got a good reason
For taking the easy way out
Yes, I got a good reason
For taking the easy way out
She was a day tripper
One way driver, yeah
It took me so long to find out
But I found out
Well, I got a good reason
For taking the easy way out
Yes, I got a good reason
Girl, for taking the easy way out
She was a day tripper
One way ticket, yeah
It took me so
So long to find out but I found out
