Welcome to 'Unplugged', the program where everybody takes their plugs out and goes mad. Now, gonna play a song which, it was the first song I ever wrote, when I was fourteen. We've done an arrangement on it, you see. You take a 'G' and you take a 'G7' and then the 'C'. That's all there is really. A bit of 'F', I must admit." I Lost My Little Girl Well, I woke up late this morning, my head was in a whirl, only when I realized I lost my little girl. Ah-ha-ha-ha. Well, her clothes are not expensive, her hair didn't always curl. I don't know why I love her but I love my little girl. Ah-ha-ha-ha. Well, gather round people, let me tell you the story of the very first song I wrote. Well, gather round people, let me tell you the story of the very first song I wrote. I woke up late this morning, my head was in a whirl, only when I realized I lost my little girl. Ah-ha-ha-ha. That's it. "Thank you, thank you! We never did it because of that line "her hair wouldn't always curl". Couldn't handle that line. Still, there you go, okay. All right then, many years later, I writ this one." Here, There and Everywhere (Lennon/McCartney) To lead a better life, I need my love to be here. Here, making each day of the year, changing my life with a wave of her hand; nobody can deny that there's something there. There, running my hands through her hair, both of us thinking how good it can be; someone is speaking, but she doesn't know he's there. I need her everywhere and if she's beside me I know I need never care. But to love her is to need her everywhere, knowing that love is to share, each one believing that love never dies, watching her eyes and hoping I'm always there. I need her everywhere and if she's beside me I know I need never care. But to love her is to need her everywhere, knowing that love is to share, each one believing that love never dies, watching her eyes and hoping I'm always there. I will be there and everywhere, here, there and everywhere. "Thank you. It's quite cold this afternoon! Still, here we go. We'd like to do a song, I think. This one is written by Bill Monroe, goes like this. (Matt Monroe's dad!) Matt Monroe's dad!" Blue Moon Of Kentucky (Monroe) Well, blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining, shine on the one that's gone and left me blue. Well, blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining, shine on the one that's gone and left me blue. Well, it was on one moonlight night with the stars shining bright, wind blowing high, my love said goodbye. Blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining, shine on the one that's gone and left me blue. Well, it was on one moonlight night with the stars shining bright, wind blowing high, my love said goodbye.

Blue moon of Kentucky just a-keep on shining, well, shine on the one that's gone and left me blue. Yeah, shine on the one that's gone and left me blue. "Oh, thank you, thanks for all your 'Woh!' and 'Yeah!' and Woohoo!' and all of that. Yeah, in fact, let's have a little more of that, can we? (Steady) Steady, boy, steady! Are you ready?" We Can Work It Out (Lennon/McCartney) One, two, three, four. Try to see it my way, will give a damn if I am right or I am... "Hang on! Hang on! Hang on! I only got the words wrong, didn't I? Been a long time. This is so informal, we'll start again. Can we have a few more 'Woohoo's' and 'Yeah'?" "One, two... Hey, wait a minute, what is the words? Do I have to...I got it! I got it!" One, two, three, four. Try to see it my way, do I have to keep on talking till I can't go on? While you see it your way, run a risk of knowing that our love may soon be gone. We can work it out, we can work it out. Think of what you're saying, you can get it wrong and still you think that it's all right. Think of what I'm saying, we can work it out and get it straight, or say good night. We can work it out, we can work it out. Life is very short and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend. I have always thought that it's a crime so I will ask you once again. Try to see it my way, only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong. While you see it your way, there's a chance that we might fall apart before too long. We can work it out, we can work it out. Life is very short and there's no time for fussing and fussing and fussing and fighting, my friend. I have always thought that it's a crime so I will ask you once again.

"Thank you! Thank you very much! Cheers! Okay, lads? Okay, so this next song was, the record I had was by Ramblin' Jack Elliot. Son of T.S. Goes like this." San Francisco Bay Blues (Fuller) Well, when I'm walking with my baby down by the San Francisco bay, the ocean liner is going so far away. I didn't mean to treat her so bad, she was the best pal I ever had. She made me cry, she made me sigh, I wanna lay down and die. Well, I ain't got a dollar, I don't give a lousy dime, and if she never comes back, you know, I'm gonna lose my mind. But if she ever come back to stay, it's gonna be a brand new day, when I'm walking with my baby down by the San Francisco bay, hey, yeah. Oh yeah, I don't give a lousy dime! Gonna lose my mind! But if she ever... Yes, it's gonna be a... Walking... Yeah, yeah. Well, when I'm walking with my baby down by the San Francisco bay, the ocean liner is going so far away.

"Thank you! Thank you! Okay, are you ready, Robbie? You start after 10, after 2." I've Just Seen A Face (Lennon/McCartney) I've just seen a face I can't forget the time or place where we just met. She's just the girl for me and I want all the world to see we've met. Mm na na na. Had it been another day I might have looked the other way and I'd have never been aware but as it is I'll dream of her tonight, na na na na na na. Falling, yes, I am falling, and she keeps calling me back again. I have never known the likes of this, I've been alone and I have missed things and kept out of sight for other girls were never quite like this, na na na na na na. Falling, yes, I am falling, and she keeps calling me back again. Falling, yes, I am falling, and she keeps calling me back again.

"Thank you! Alright! Thank you very much, thank you. Thank you, thank you. Yihah and then woohoo. Oops! Bit of tuning, bit of tuning. That's just, that's near enough for skiffle! This is how we started out, you know. Everyone kind of, in those days, bought a guitar and, like it was the skiffle craze. It's going back before most of your time. And mine. Certainly before yours." Every Night Every night I just wanna go out, get out of my head. Every day I don't wanna play up, get out of my bed. Every night I wanna play out and every day I wanna do. But tonight I just wanna stay in and be with you, and be with you. Oo, oh, believe me, momma. Oo, oh. Every day I lean on a lamppost, I'm wasting my time. (time) Every night I lay on a pillow, just resting my mind. (mind) Every morning brings a new day and every night that day is through. But tonight I just wanna stay in and be with you, and be with you. Oo, oh, believe me, momma. Oo, oh. Oh, and be with you. "Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. All right."

Turn me on when I get lonely, people tell me that she's only fooling, I know she isn't. She don't give boys the eye, she hates to see me cry. She is happy just to hear me say that I will never leave her, she don't give boys the eye. She will never make me jealous, gives me all her time as well as loving, don't ask me why.

"All right, this is, an old Beatles song called 'And I Love Her'." And I Love Her (Lennon/McCartney) I give her all my love, that's all I do. And if you saw my love, you'd love her too, I love her. She gives me everything and tenderly. The kiss my lover brings, she brings to me, and I love her. A love like ours could never die as long as I have you near me. Bright are the stars that shine, dark is the sky. I know this love of mine will never die, and I love her. Bright are the stars that shine, dark is the sky.

This next song was one off the early album I called 'McCartney'." "Why'd you call it that for?" "Eh?" "Why'd you call it..." "I don't know, I don't, it just came to me, a title, 'McCartney'. I thought it was a good title. Lord knows why. This one goes like this."

I said, no, no, no, that's 'Blackbird'! Subtle difference! Ha ha ha...oh, she's a big fan! Okay, are you ready, Robbie...that's her! Now she's nicking me water! Look at this, taking me papers and...hey, we're doing 'Blackboard', luv! 'Blackboard!' "I like this song!" "She likes this one! Dear me, she wants paying next, go off! Get out you! It's supposed to be a serious show. Showing our acoustic, you know, versatility." Blackbird (Lennon/McCartney) Blackbird singing in the dead of night, take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, you were only waiting for this moment to arise. Blackbird singing in the dead of night, take these sunken eyes and learn to see. All your life, you were only waiting for this moment to be free. Blackbird, fly, blackbird, fly into the light of the dark, black night. Blackbird singing in the dead of night, take these sunken eyes and learn to see. All your life, you were only waiting for this moment to be free, you were only waiting for this moment to be free, you were only waiting for this moment to be free. "Thank you! Thank you! That was 'Blackboard!'" Ain't No Sunshine (Withers) Ain't no sunshine when she's gone, only darkness every day. Ain't no sunshine when she's gone and this house just ain't no home, any time she goes away. I wonder this time where she's gone, is she really going to stay?
