[Mi-Amigo]

                                                               THE SONG LYRICS CHALLENGE

To find the names of the people mentioned in the lyrics of the officially released records.

Hints/clues:

- not every song mentions a name in the lyrics.

- you have to find actual names - some first names, some surnames, some both - in the song lyrics

- lyrics may include a title or rank [e.g. if Miss Bloggs was in the lyrics, it would be included

- lyrics with only "a" or "the" not included [e.g. if "the Carpenter" was in lyrics, it would be excluded]

- some names are included in more than one song [not record]; you have to find all [in separate post]

- some songs include more than one name in lyrics; you have to find all the names [in separate post]

Rules:

- no googling/wiki/social media/playing song on iphone, smart phone, CD, record player

- all entries must be submitted as follows:

   [name of person] in lyrics on [name of song] - [e.g. Mrs Bloggs on song Bloggs & Son]

- only one entry (guess) - [name of person] per post; only one post per person per day

- some names appear in lyrics of more than one song [not record], each to be given on separate post

- some lyrics  contain more than one name, each name with title of song [not record] on separate post

- the words of the track Revolution #9 [on "The Beatles" ("White") album] are excluded

- only lyrics of songs on studio recordings officially released between Oct 1962 and May 1970 included

    no "live" records, "BBC sessions", or bootleg/unreleased versions

Brilliant answers. @Cleoriff; @MusicIan; @Bambino; @pgn; @MI5 - all gave correct answers.

I must make a special mention to the answer by @Glory1. Georgia in Back In The USSR was not on my list.

It is thought that Georgia refers to the former state of the USSR but checking and listening to the song, as it refers to Mosgow girls, Ukraine girls, then "Georgia`s always on my mind" could refer to a girl of that name rather than a girl from Georgia. I have many books on The Beatles including the official Anthology and there is no mention of who Paul was referring to. Therefore, I am pleased to say that this is a correct answer - and an addition to 77 names on my list.

The list of names, and in which song, is in the separate post below.

Still plenty of easier and more difficult ones to find.

Remember - only one name with name of song in each post, and only one post per day.

Thank you all for your interest. Hope you are enjoying it.
