I once had a girl
or should I say
she once had me
She showed me her room
isn't it good?
Norwegian Wood
She asked me to stay and she told me
to sit anywhere
so I looked around and noticed there
wasn't a chair
I sat on a rug
biding my time
drinking her wine
We talked until two
and then she said
"It's time for bed"
She told me she worked in the morning
and started to laugh
I told her I didn't, and crawled off to
sleep in the bath
and when I awoke
I was alone
this bird had flown
so I lit a fire
isn't it good?
Norwegian Wood


This was the first time that a sitar had been used on a pop single.
