The Beatles - Tell Me Why Lyrics and Youtube Music VideosAlbum:
A Hard Day's Night Released:
1964 Tell Me Why you cried, and why you lied to me,
Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me.
Well I gave you ev'rything I had,
But you left me sitting on my own,
Did you have to treat me oh so bad,
All I do is hang my head and moan.
Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me,
Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me.
If there's something I have said or done,
Tell me what and I'll apologise,
If you don't really can't go on,
Holding back these tears in my eyes.
Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me,
Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me.
Well I beg you on my bended knees,
If you'll only listen to my pleas,
Is there anything I can do,
'Cause I really can't stand it, I'm so in love with you.
Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me.

LyricFindTell Me Why Song Chart John Lennon, whose parents separated when he was 3 years old, has said that the lyrics were about children whose parents split up. Apparently, he didn't put a great deal of effort into the song, staing: "They needed another upbeat song, and I just knocked it off." (thanks, Bertrand - Paris, France) This was performed in The Beatles movie A Hard Day's Night. It was The Beatles first movie, and the group was not yet popular in America when the deal was signed to make it. Before filming began, The Beatles became huge and the movie did very well. John and Paul sang lead vocals, but Lennon was double-tracked to create a 3 part harmony. This was recorded on Thursday, February 27, 1964. Take 8 was used. (thanks, Ben - Cheverly, MD)
