[Verse 1: Ringo Starr] In the town where I was born Lived a man who sailed to sea And he told us of his life In the land of submarines [Verse 2: Ringo Starr] So we sailed on to the sun Till we found the sea of green And we lived beneath the waves In our yellow submarine [Chorus: Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney, John Lennon & George Harrison] We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine [Verse 3: Ringo Starr] And our friends are all aboard Many more of them live next door And the band begins to play [Chorus: Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney, John Lennon & George Harrison] We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine [Bridge: Paul McCartney & John Lennon] Full steam ahead Mister Boatswain, full steam ahead Full steam ahead it is, Sergeant Cut the cable! Drop the cable! Aye-aye sir, aye-aye Captain! Captain! [Verse 4: Ringo Starr & Paul McCartney] As we live a life of ease Everyone of us (Everyone of us) has all we need (Has all we need) Sky of blue (Sky of blue) and sea of green (Sea of green) In our yellow (In our yellow) submarine (Submarine, ha-ha!) [Chorus: Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney, John Lennon & George Harrison] We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine We all live in a yellow submarine Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
