[Intro]
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah yeah

[Chorus]
Jet
Jet

[Verse 1]
Jet, I can almost remember
The funny faces
That time you told 'em
That you were gonna be marrying soon

[Pre-Chorus]
And Jet, I thought
The only lonely place was on the moon

[Chorus]
Jet, ooh
Jet, ooh

[Verse 2]
Jet, was your father as bold
As a Sergeant Major?
How come he told you
That you were hardly old enough yet?

[Pre-Chorus]
And Jet, I thought the Major
Was a Lady Suffragette

[Chorus]
Jet, ooh
Jet, ooh

[Bridge]
Ah, mater, I want Jet to always love me
Ah, mater, want Jet to always love me
Ah, mater, much later
Ooh, she said
She said
Jet

[Pre-Chorus]
And Jet, I thought the Major
Was a Lady Suffragette

[Chorus]
Jet, ooh
Jet, ooh

[Bridge]
Ah, mater, want Jet to always love me
Ah, mater, you know I want Jet to always love me
Ah, mater, much later
Whoo, she said

[Verse 3]
Jet, with the wind in your hair
Of a thousand laces
Climb on the back and we'll
Go for a ride in the sky

[Pre-Chorus]
And Jet, I thought the Major
Was a Lady Suffragette

[Chorus]
Jet, ooh
Jet, ooh

[Pre-Chorus]
And yeah, don't you know that I
I thought you was a little Lady Suffragette

[Outro]
Jet, ooh
My little lady
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

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.
