Beatles John Lennon Come Together

Come Together is a song by The Beatles written primarily by John Lennon and credited to Lennon, McCartney. The song s history began with Lennon writing a song for Timothy Leary s failed gubernatorial campaign in California against Ronald Reagan, which promptly ended when Leary was sent to prison for possession of marijuana. Lennon supposedly says shoot me while Paul McCartney covers it up with a bass a time, the song was banned by the BBC, as they believed the song s reference to shooting CocaCola could be construed as either a cocaine reference or an advertisement of a soft drink.
