| | Old Brown Shoe Lyrics Artist(Band):The Beatles
I want a short haired girl who sometimes wears it twice as long. Now I'm stepping out this old brown shoe, baby, I'm in love with you. I'm so glad you came here, it won't be the same now, I'm telling you. You know you pick me up from where some try to drag me down And when I see your smile replacing every thoughtless frown. Got me escaping from this zoo, baby, I'm in love with you. I'm so glad you came here, it won't be the same now when I'm with you. If I grow up I'll be a singer wearing rings on every finger. Not worrying what they or you say I'll live and love and maybe someday Who knows, baby, you may comfort me. I may appear to be imperfect, my love is something you can't reject I'm changing faster than the weather, If you and me should get together Who knows baby, you may comfort me That love of yours, to miss that love is something I'd hate. I'll make an early start, I'm making sure that I'm not late. For your sweet top lip I'm in the queue, baby, I'm in love with you. I'm so glad you came here, it won't be the same now when I'm with you. I'm so glad you came here, it won't be the same now when I'm with you.

Review about Old Brown Shoe George blows away Lennon/McCartney in the end | Reviewer: P. Abidi | 11/11/09 George at the very end was a better songwriter than McCartney's soft love songs and Lennon's dry wit. People are so stuck with Lennon/McCartney writing songs that they completely ignore the music part of any Beatles songs. There would have not been any memorable songs if George did not use his magic to fill in those gaps with his masterful strokes on the lead guitar. Yes each of the member's in it's own way contributed but somewhere in time George will be remembered for his brilliant song setup and musical collaboration in composing the songs we hear today and also his true to life writing. F-ing brilliant | Reviewer: Carlisticeday | 10/29/09 For me, George Harrison's songs, pound for pound, stand up as well or better than most of the Lennon-McCartney songbook. He recorded comparatively few songs with the Beatles, but each one is a gem, and a lot of them were just killer cuts - like this one, which is a brilliantly conceived piece given a fantastic treatment by the greatest rock band that ever was. And now, forty years on, I keep coming back to songs like Old Brown Shoe, Love You To, Don't Bother Me, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, I Me Mine, and Within You Without You (and of course Something and Here Comes the Sun), and they still sound remarkably fresh - much more so than many L-M classics, some of which - let's face it - when you rub off the Beatles glitter, have come to sound a bit hackneyed. Don't get me wrong: I'll always be a huge Beatles fan. But George's songs have a lot more going for them than they're usually given credit for. And this one is a perfect example. Could easily have been the A-side of the single, but for the drama surrounding John and Yoko.... One of the Great Pop Guitar solos | Reviewer: Kevin | 8/26/09 The solo George does on the record of this song is just perfect. The chord changes are so cool, and what he plays is as melodic as it gets. If you haven't seen the "Concert For George" DVD, you've got to check it out. You can fast forward the first 30 minutes or so if you don't like the Indian music, but it has to rank as one of the great concerts of all time. Old Brown Shoe | Reviewer: Christi Macaione | 8/3/09 This is my favorite George Harrison song, because it's very obsure. It's not over played as Here Comes the Sun, Something and to a lesser extent, While My Guitar Gently Weeps. The only place I've found it is on The Beatles Past Masters Vol. 2 CD. Old Brown shoe | Reviewer: Brian DiMuzio | 12/30/08 Old brown shoe is a weird song, but it's awesome. The words and music blends perfectly. Great job for George. My personal feeling is that I believe that all Beatle songs should be composed by: John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison. George Harrison had to come up with a lot guitar work and also doing the lead part. Don't you agreed? Dreaming the Muse | Reviewer: Sav | 9/28/08 "Old Brown Shoe" is beautiful because Harrison writes with the ironic retrospect of a famous rock star, the wisdom of someone perceiving the cosmos, and yet the humility of someone who knows that for all of that he's still just a young man, a dreamer, and someone who has yet to find true fulfillment with his muse. Yes, she picks him up, but no, she can't yet respond to those first two lines...the first two lines are his naked admission of mortal dissatisfaction amidst his awe of the totality. By looking to his muse he gives up that dissatisfaction and finds a rather more sincere need. We travel the first bridge with its fateful combining of premonition of stardom as truth. Next time around, the foreboding organ in the second bridge signals how more dire the distance, how weary he is with all the pettiness surrounding him and within him - but he still holds out for her. She can bring him to that wonderful release chanted in falsetto at the song's end. The little boy is flinging away the old brown shoe - that comfortable but stifling old life as he knew it. The music, his voice, his solo in the middle - it certainly convinces us his love is worthy. And if he's in love with her, then she too must be worthy.
