"Don't Bother Me" Lyrics

by George Harrison

Original Manuscript (1963)

Since she's been gone I want no-one to talk to me
It's not the same - but I'm to blame, it's plan to see
So - go away leave me alone don't bother me.

I can't believe that she would leave me on my own.
It's just not right when every night I'm all alone
I've got no time for you right now don't bother me.

I know I'll never be the same
If I don't get her back again.
Because I know she'll always be
The only girl for me.

But 'till she's here please don't come near just stay away
I'll let you know when she's come home - until that day
Don't come around, leave me alone don't bother me -
Don't bother me (please).

As Released by the Beatles (1963)

Since she's been gone
I want no one to talk to me
It's not the same
But I'm to blame
It's plan to see
So go away
Leave me alone
Don't bother me

I can't believe
That she would leave me on my own
It's just not right
When every night I'm all alone

I've got no time for you right now
Don't bother me

I know I'll never be the same
If I don't get her back again
Because I know she'll always be
The only girl for me

But till she's here
Please don't come near
Just stay away

I'll let you know
When she's come home
Until that day
Don't come around
Leave me alone
Don't bother me

I've got no time for you right now
Don't bother me

I know I'll never be the same
If I don't get her back again
Because I know she'll always be
The only girl for me

But till she's here
Please don't come near
Just stay away

I'll let you know
When she's come home
Until that day
Don't come around
Leave me alone
Don't bother me

Don't bother me
Don't bother me
Don't bother me
Don't bother me.
