John Lennon – Whatever Gets You Thru The Night Lyrics
Featuring: Elton John
Whatever gets you through the night it's alright, it's alright
It's your money or life it's alright, its's alright
Don't need a sword to cut through flowers oh no, oh no
Whatever gets you through your life it's alright, it's alright
Do it wrong or do it right it's alright, it's alright
Don't need a watch to waste your time oh no, oh no
Hold me darlin' come on listen to me
I won't do you no harm
Trust me darlin' come on listen to me, come on listen to me
Come on listen, listen
Whatever gets you to the light it's alright, it's alright
Out the blue or out of sight it's alright, it's alright
Don't need a gun to blow your mind oh no, oh no
Hold me darlin' come on listen to me
I won't do you no harm
Trust me darlin' come on listen to me, come on listen to me
Come on listen, listen
It's your money or life it's alright, its's alright
Don't need a sword to cut through flowers oh no, oh no
Whatever gets you through your life it's alright, it's alright
Do it wrong or do it right it's alright, it's alright
Don't need a watch to waste your time oh no, oh no
Hold me darlin' come on listen to me
I won't do you no harm
Trust me darlin' come on listen to me, come on listen to me
Come on listen, listen
Whatever gets you to the light it's alright, it's alright
Out the blue or out of sight it's alright, it's alright
Don't need a gun to blow your mind oh no, oh no
Hold me darlin' come on listen to me
I won't do you no harm
Trust me darlin' come on listen to me, come on listen to me
Come on listen, listen
About Whatever Gets You Thru The Night
Lennon’s first and only solo #1 single in the US released during his lifetime.
Featuring Elton John on backing vocals and piano, John wagered with Lennon that it would top the charts, resulting in the pair appearing live on stage together at Elton’s 1974 Madison Square Garden gig. This would be the last notable live appearance by John Lennon.
