Eleanor Rigby:The Beatles.
Revolver Album - 1966. Top of charts same year.
INTRO:
Ah, look at all the lonely peop
Ah, look at all the lonely people.
#1.
Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in
the church where her wedding has been.
Lives in a dream.
Waits at the window, wearing the face
that she keeps in a jar by the door.
Who is it for?
CHORUS:
All the lonely people.
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people.
Where do they all belong?
#2.
Father MacKenzie writing the words of a
sermon that no one will hear.
No one comes near.
Look at him working, darning his socks
in the night when there's nobody there.
What does he care?
CHORUS:
All the lonely people.
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people.
Where do they all belong?
Ah, look at all the lonely people.
Ah, look at all the lonely people.
#3.
Eleanor Rigby died in the church and was
buried along with her name. Nobody came.
Father MacKenzie wiping the dirt from his hands
as he walks from the grave. No one was saved.
CHORUS:
All the lonely people.
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people.
Where do they all belong?
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
