The story behind the song

This song is a "raucous rock and roll" tune that signaled a return to a more conventional approach for the band after their psychedelic explorations. It was inspired by a bluesy boogie-woogie piano style, reminiscent of Fats Domino. The lyrics, co-written by Paul McCartney and John Lennon, tell the story of an overworked, exhausted, and possibly single mother facing daily struggles. Playing this song channels a sense of resilience and the everyday grind.
