Yellow Submarine – The Beatles – Complete
In the town where I was born Lived a man who sailed to sea
And he told us of his life In the land of submarines So we sailed up to the sun Till we found a sea of green
And we lived beneath the waves in our yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
And our friends are all aboard Many more of them live next door
And the band begins to play
We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
(Full speed ahead Mr. Boatswain, full speed ahead
Full speed ahead it is, Sgt. Cut the cable, drop the cable
Aye, Sir, aye Captain, captain)
As we live a life of ease
Every one of us has all we need Sky of blue and sea of green
In our yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
