[Intro: John Lennon, George Harrison, Paul McCartney]
My guitar still seems to go in and out like it's, like the lead's wrong
I did a free-go one then, one of them wonder then you don't know what you're doing, just a funny piece
I did a freak out one then
One of them where you don't know what you're doing
Keep that one
Alright, let's go
One, two, three, four
Et laudate, cum una voce reclamamus, non nobis solum sed toti mundo nati
[Chorus: Paul McCartney]
Lovely Rita, meter maid
Nothing can come between us
When it gets dark I tow your heart away
[Verse 1: Paul McCartney]
Standing by a parking meter
When I caught a glimpse of Rita
Filling in a ticket in her little white book
In a cap, she looked much older
And the bag across her shoulder
Made her look a little like a military man
[Chorus: Paul McCartney]
Lovely Rita, meter maid
May I inquire discreetly
When are you free to take some tea with me?
[Bridge: Paul McCartney]
Rita!
[Verse 2: Paul McCartney]
Took her out and tried to win her
Had a laugh and over dinner
Told her I would really like to see her again
Got the bill and Rita paid it
Took her home, I nearly made it
Sitting on the sofa with a sister or two
[Chorus: Paul McCartney]
Oh, lovely Rita, meter maid
Where would I be without you?
Give us a wink and make me think of you
Lovely meter maid
Rita, meter maid
Oh, lovely Rita meter, meter maid, yeah
[Outro: John Lennon]
Oh, no, no, no, no, no
I refuse to go
