Songwriter: Paul McCartney John Lennon

What would you do
If I sang out of tune
Would you stand up
And...
And walk out o' me?
Friends!
Lend me your ears
And I'll sing you a song
And I'll try not to sing out of key
Thank you!
Oh, I get by
With a little help from my friends
And I get high
With a little help from my friends
And I'm gonna try
With a little help from my friends
What do I do
When my love is away?
Does it worry you to be alone?

How do I feel by the end of the day
Are you sad because you're on your own7
No, mm, mm...
I get by
With a little help from my friends
Mmm I get high
With a little help from my friends
And I'm gonna try
With a little help from my friends
Do you need anybody
I need somebody to love
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love
I need somebody to love
I want somebody to love
With a little help...
Help!
Help...

Barbra Streisand is an Oscar-winning, Tony-winning, Emmy-winning, Golden Globe-winning Broadway legend, film star, movie director and one of the biggest-selling recording artists of all time - a staggering amount of accomplishments for someone whose mother insisted she not to go into show business.

By the time she was sixteen, she’d graduated high school and was living on her own in Manhattan. After winning a talent contest at a gay bar on West 9th Street, Streisand’s ‘spellbinding’ voice quickly became popular at New York clubs and in Broadway shows. After appearances on a number of popular television shows including The Tonight Show, Streisand signed with Columbia Records and released several top 10 albums in the 1960s, scoring two US top 40 hits with “People” and “Second Hand Rose”.

Her success as a recording artist continued through the 1970s with several more gold/platinum-certified albums and four US “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers”, “No More Tears”, the Oscar-winning “The Way We Were”, and the Academy Award-winning “Evergreen (Love Theme from A Star Is Born)”. The 1980s would begin with Streisand’s biggest-selling release of her career Guilty, a collaborative effort with BeeGees member Barry Gibb. It topped the albums chart in several countries and as did its lead single “Woman In Love”.
