[Verse 1]
Every night, I just want to go out
Get out of my head
Every day, I don't want to get up
Get out of my bed
Every night, I want to play out
And every day, I want to do
But tonight I just want to stay in and be with you, ooh
And be with you

[Chorus]
Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh
Oo-hoo-ooh, mm-hmmh
Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh
Oo-hooh, mm-hmmh

[Verse 2]
Every day, I lean on a lamp post
I'm wasting my time
Every night, I lay on a pillow
I'm resting my mind
Every morning brings a new day
And every night, that day is through
But tonight I just want to stay in and be with you, ooh
And be with you

[Outro]
Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh
Oo-ooh, mm-hmmh, believe me mama
Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh, ah
Oo-ooh, mm-hmmh
Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh
Oo-hoo-ooh, mm-hmmh

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.
