[Intro]
Lady Madonna, children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet
Who finds the money when you pay the rent?
Did you know the money was heaven sent?

[Verse 1]
Friday night arrives without a suitcase
Sunday morning creeping like a nun
Monday's child has learned to tie his bootlace
See how they run

[Chorus]
Lady Madonna, baby at your breast
Wonders how you manage to feed the rest
(pa pa pa pa pa pa pa pa pa pa pa)

[Bridge]
See how they run

[Chorus]
Lady Madonna lying on the bed
Listen to the music playing in your pretty little head

[Verse 2]
Tuesday afternoon is never ending
Wednesday morning papers didn’t come
Thursday night your stockings needed mending
See how they run

[Outro]
Lady Madonna, children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet

Sir James Paul McCartney, born June 18, 1942, is the single most successful music artist of all time. He found worldwide fame as the bass player and vocalist for The Beatles, and has continued to enjoy commercial success long after the band’s breakup.

His post-Beatles projects—the most lucrative of which was the band Wings, alongside then-wife Linda Eastman—have been met with mixed critical reception but he still retains a substantial public following, regularly conducting worldwide arena tours well into his later years.

His album sales with The Beatles, Wings and solo endeavours combined come to over 100 million, and his net worth was estimated to be approximately $1.2 billion circa 2018. He was knighted in 1997 and is known for his activism.
