Billy Preston
Eleanor Rigby (Live at Fillmore West, 1971)
[Intro]
Don't fight the feelin'
[Verse 1]
I'm Eleanor Rigby
I picked up the rice in the church where the weddings have been
Yeah, I'm Eleanor Rigby
I'm keepin' my face in a jar by the door
If you wanna know what is it for, Well
[Chorus]
All the lonely people
Where do they all come from
All the lonely people
Where do they, where do they all belong
[Verse 2]
Father McKenzie
Writing the words to a sermon
That no one will hear
No one comes near
Look at him working
Knotting his socks in the night
What does he care
[Chorus]
Talkin' about all, all the lonely people
Where do, where do they all come from
All over this world, the lonely people
Tell me where, where do they all belong
[Bridge]
Eleanor, Eleanor Rigby
Eleanor, Eleanor Rigby
[Verse 3]
Eleanor Rigby died in the church
And was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie Wiping the dirt from his hands
As he walks from the grave
[Chorus]
Sayin' all, all of the lonely people
Where do they all come from
All over this world, the lonely lonely people
Tell me where, where do they all belong
[Outro]
Eleanor, Eleanor Rigby
Could it be, could it be Eleanor Rigby
Come on girl, do your thing, yeah yeah
Eleanor Rigby, Eleanor, woo
Eleanor Rigby, baby, do your thing
