I Secured Them... A Beatle Drink Even Then (Anthology 1 Version)

I secured them an audition at Decca on New Year's Day

1962

They came to London and stayed

At the Royal Hotel paying 27 shillings

A night for bed and breakfast

They were poor and I wan't rich

But we all celebrated with Rum

Scotch and Coke which was becoming a Beatle drink even then
