      Is the title of a Rutles song -- not a huge fan of this parody, but I thought we could come up with a few of our own "alternate" titles for a bit of fun.

                          Good first try John! But Macca was originally inspired by a willow tree in his yard that had grown quite big...it seems the original lyric was actually "The Long And Winding Root"!

                            Pretty funny! The original lyrics were written while John and Paul were having lunch giving us the original epicurean though somewhat less sensuous "I Want To Hold Your Ham"

                                  Harrison also wrote a bit of a snoozer called "While My Guitar Gently Sleeps" which the Beatles summarily rejected. He later repenned it into the classic we know!

                                    That one apparently was penned at Abbey Road studios during one of George's innumerable take sessions. John bowed out saying he had to go see his tailor and Paul having brought his gf to the studio that day leaned over and whispered in her ear "Why don't we do it on the roof." She declined so Paul wrote the song!

                                            There were also the tunes on Abbey Road: "Oh! Darnit" and "She Came In Through The Bathroom Door" Which required a bit of rewriting before they were released
