先介紹一首The Beatles的名曲 Hey Jude

這首歌是樂團成員Paul McCartney寫給另一位成員 John Lennon兒子Julian

當時 Julian 5歲  父母正要離婚

Paul McCartney寫這首歌安慰小男孩

因為是寫給孩子的曲子

用詞不難  

這首歌是the Beatles最長的一首單曲

也是當時發行的最長單曲

當時電台喜歡短的曲子

如此才可以播放很多首曲子

Hey Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

Hey Jude, don't be afraid
You were made to go out and get her
The minute you let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better

And anytime you feel the pain
Hey Jude refrain
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders
For well you know that it's a fool
Who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder
Na na na na na
Na na na na

Hey Jude don't let me down
You have found her, now go and get her
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

So let it out and let it in
Hey Jude begin
You're waiting for someone to perform with
And don't you know that it's just you
Hey Jude, you'll do
The movement you need is on your shoulder
Na na na na na
Na na na na yeah

Hey Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better
Better, better, better, better, better, oh
Yeah

Na, na na na na na na
na na na na, hey Jude
