Lyrics
[Verse 1] Ooh, well, I got a girl with a record machine When it comes to rocking, she's a queen Went to a dance on a Saturday night All alone where I could hold her tight She lives on the twentieth floor uptown The elevator's broken down [Chorus] So I walk one, two flight, three flight four Five, six, seven flight, eight flight more Up on the twelfth, I'm starting to sag Fifteen before I'm ready to drag Get to the top and I'm too tired to rock [Verse 2] Well, she, she called me up on the telephone Said, "Come on over, baby, I'm all alone" I said, "Baby, you're mighty sweet But I'm in bed with a aching feet" This went on for a couple of days But I could not stay away [Chorus] Oh I walk one, two flight, three flight four Five, six, seven flight, eight flight more Up on the twelfth, I'm starting to sag Fifteen before I'm ready to drag Get to the top, I'm too tired to rock You know I'm too tired baby [Piano Solo] [Verse 3] Well, sent to Chicago for repairs Till it's fixed I'm using the stairs I hope they hurry, before it's too late You know, I love my baby too much to wait All this climbing is getting me down They'll find my corpse draped over the rail [Chorus] But I walk one, two flight, three flight four Five, six, seven flight, eight flight more Up on the twelfth, I'm starting to sag Fifteen before I'm ready to drag I get to the top and I'm too tired to rock Oh oh woah woah [Guitar Solo] [Verse 1] Ooh, well, I got a gal with a record machine When it comes to rocking, you know she's a queen Went to a dance on a Saturday night All alone where I could hold her tight She lives on the twentieth floor uptown The elevator's broken down [Chorus] Well I walk one, two flight, three flight four Five, six, seven flight, eight flight more Up on the twelfth, I'm starting to sag Fifteen before I'm ready to drag I get to the top and I'm too tired to rock

Recorded over five years with producer Andrew Watt between tour legs.

McCartney delivered a three-song medley during his fifth musical appearance on SNL's milestone anniversary show.

The newly announced performers will join the likes of Miley Cyrus, Lady Gaga, Robyn and more.

A not-entirely-cryptic tweet seems to suggest he's playing the much rumoured slot this summer.
