[Verse 1]
Well, I wake up every morning
Rushin' down to work
I'm pawin' all my diamond rings to keep myself, I do the muck

[Chorus]
Goin' down to Golders Green
Goin' down to Golders Green
Goin' down to Golders Green in my limousine

[Verse 2]
No curtains on my windows
No paint up on my door
No food up on the table
And no carpets on the floor

[Chorus]
Goin' down to Golders Green
Goin' down to Golders Green
Goin' down to Golders Green in my limousine
Oh

[Verse 3]
Well, the neighbours, they all know me
Smilin' when I pass
But when it comes to Sunday, well, I'm the only at mass

[Chorus]
Goin' down to Golders Green
Goin' down to Golders Green
Goin' down to Golders Green in my limousine

[Verse 4]
At night, I don't go out much
I stay at home for peace
I try to make the most out of my ninety-nine year lease

[Chorus]
Goin' down to Goldеrs Green
Goin' down to Golders Green
Goin' down to Golders Green in my limousine
Wеll, I'm goin' down to Golders Green
Goin' down to Golders Green
Goin' down to Golders Green in my limousine
Well, I'm goin' down to Golders Green in my limousine

George Harrison

If George Harrison were merely remembered for his involvement in The Beatles, his legacy would be solidified as one of rock’s greatest names. Along with staging the world’s first benefit concert where major artists performed together for humanitarian relief, introducing pop culture to classical Indian music and gaining three #1 singles as a solo artist, he was also a film producer and an avid gardener.

In 1957, he met a young Paul McCartney on a bus they both took to school. McCartney then introduced him to John Lennon to audition for his skiffle group, the Quarrymen. Lennon originally rejected Harrison as he thought he was too young to be the band, having just turned 15. Harrison eventually impressed Lennon with his guitar skills and was accepted as a member of the group.

During his time with The Beatles, Harrison was the lead guitarist, one of the singers, and contributed many songs such as “Taxman,” “Within You Without You,” “While My Guitar Gently Weeps,” “Here Comes the Sun” and “Something.”
