Come on, lads, play it for me, boys, there we are.
Well, it's the end of the night
and I'd just like to say thank you to ev'ryone involved
in this piece of plastic we're making.
Good, old Jim Keltner, Klaus Voorman, Nicky Hopkins, George Harrison
and John Lennon, Paul Mccartney.
Richard Perry, who's producing this masterpiece,
Bill Schnee, ever smiling, ever loving
Vini Poncideo and all these other friends and ev'rybody else
who joined in and helped us on this wonderful record.
So it's a big good night from your friend and mine, Ringo Starr.
