George Harrison - Got My Mind Set on You

It was originally sung by James Ray in 1962. George Harrison made it a hit back in 1988 with a cover version, and it was the last number one single in the US for any of the solo Beatles. Though, there’s not much words in the lyrics, and even Weird Al Yankovi took the piss out of it with his release, “(This Song’s Just) Six Words Long”. Still, not a bad tune.

I got my mind set on you

But its gonna take money
A whole lotta spending money
Its gonne take plenty of money
To do it right child

Its gonna take time
A whole lot of precious time
Its gonna take patience and time, ummm
To do it, to do it, to do it, to do it, to do it,
To do it right child

I got my mind set on you

And this time I know its for real
The feelings that I feel
I know if I put my mind to it
I know that I really can do it

I got my mind set on you
