[Verse 1]
Now, let me take you to the movies, Magg, so I can hold your hand
Oh, it ain't that I don't like your house, it's just that doggone man
And that double barrel behind the door that waits for me, I know
Oh, climb upon ol' Becky's back and let's ride to the picture show

[Verse 2]
I only see her once a week and it's when my work is through
I break new ground the whole week long but my mind's set straight on you
And I polished up my old horse Beck, and she looks good, I know
So climb upon ol' Becky's back and let's ride to the picture show

[Verse 1]
Now, let me take you to the movies, Magg, so I can hold your hand
Oh, it ain't that I don't like your house, it's just that doggone man
And that double barrel behind the door that waits for me, I know
Oh, climb upon ol' Becky's back and let's ride to the picture show

[Verse 2]
Well, I break new ground the whole week long with my mind's set straight on you
And every time I try to smile, my heart it breaks in two
I slick myself for Saturday night 'cause there's one thing I know
I'm going to take my Maggie dear to the western picture show

[Verse 1]
Now won't you let me take you to the show so I can hold your hand
But it ain't that I don't like your house, it's just that doggone man
And that double barrel behind the door that waits for me, I know
So climb upon ol' Becky's back and let's ride to the picture show

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.
