My Sweet Lord by George Harrison

My sweet Lord
Hm, my Lord
Hm, my Lord
I really want to see you
I really want to be with you
I really want to see you Lord
But it won't take long, my Lord
My sweet Lord
Hm, my Lord
Hm, my Lord
I really want to know you
I really want to go with you
I really want to show you Lord
But it won't take long, my Lord
My sweet Lord
My sweet Lord
My sweet Lord
I really want to see you
I really want to see you
I really want to see you Lord
I really want to see you Lord
But it takes so long, my Lord
My sweet Lord
Hm, my Lord
My, my, Lord
I really want to know you Lord
I really want to go with you
I really want to show you Lord
That it won't take long, oh Lord
(Hallelujah)
Hm Lord
(Hallelujah)
My sweet Lord
(Hallelujah)
My, my, Lord
(Hallelujah)
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Aah

(Hallelujah)
My sweet Lord
(Hallelujah)
Oh, my sweet Lord
(Hallelujah)
My sweet Lord
(Hallelujah)
I really want to see you
(Hallelujah)
I really want to be with you

My sweet, sweet Lord
(Hare Krishna)
Oh, my, my Lord
(Hare Krishna)
Oh, my Lord
(Hare Krishna)
My sweet Lord

I THINK HE MEANS THE LORD OF DANCE... OR MAYBE HE IS REFERRING TO THE LARGE ADULT PLESURE DEVICE THAT SCOTT REFERRED TO BY THAT NAME

Wow. I never realized what this song was about. There are actually very few lyrics. It just repeats over and over. I also always thought this was The Beatles.
I’m not certain that this song is really a correct way to think about the lord. The lord isn’t someone you get to hang out with when you are dead. But what do I know? For all I know George Harrison is raggin with the lord right now. They are sipping cocktails on the beach with prince and Tom petty while watching Michael Jackson rape little angle boys. Or maybe he was just singing about that giant dildo Scott invented.

George wrote this when he was technically still a Beatle, so there's that

He got real spiritual after their visit to meet the Maharishi

This was his ode to Hinduism's Krishna, and it sure is catchy

I remember he got into a copyright infringement case with it's similarity to "He's So Fine"

George was the shit though and he was damn good friend

He's the reason Life of Brian was even made

Just days before production was about to begin, EMI pulled the money away

So George stepped in and the rest is history

Plus he wrote some of my favorite Beatles songs and he was just a cool dude

I've been rediscovering his solo stuff lately and he has some great hidden gems

I always thought the words were 'my sweet love'. I miss 'ol George. I wonder if the Beatles would have gotten together for a reunion album in the 90s if someone hadn't put a cap in John's ass. But, from what I've read, Yo-ko had so poisoned the waters that it was unlikely. Sad.
