Elton John - Medley (Yell Help, Wednesday Night, Ugly) Lyrics






Yell help, too many cooks and a bird in the bush, yell help
Yell help, if your mirror busts and your cat gets cussed, yell help
'Cause down the road you find someone else who's looking
Down the road you find another sweet lady cooking
So I gotta yell help

Yell help, some shelter from the storm like the travel agent warned
Yell help, if you can help your superstitions they gonna keep you warm
'Cause down the road you find someone else who's looking
Down the road you seen another sweet lady cooking
So I gotta yell help

I wish tonight wasn't Wednesday night
I wish it wasn't the thirteenth of July, yell help
And you're looking at the guy whose eyes can't deny
That he wishes he were somewhere else tonight

Well I met this woman down in New Orleans
Lord she built just like a dream
Even wore stockings that had seams
And she was ugly

Now hell I don't mind women of her kind
I'll even pay sometimes for a woman that's ugly

She built like a steamroller
Just the kind to mow you over anytime
Hey the moment might arrive

On bourbon street
Well the ugliest woman you'll ever meet
But she's mine all mine and she's ugly
So I better yell help

  6. J.... H....

    One of my favorite Elton albums!

  7. S.... U....

    My favourite Elton album. I was 16 with all the time in the world to listen to this LP in my room. Makes me want to be 16 again and wandering the clean, safe streets of Toronto on March school break. (Seriously. Freedom feels like that week. My second favourite is Captain Fantastic and Yellow Brick Road reminds me of my cousin Geoff Eglin who is 10 years older than me and always let me borrow it. Thank God, literally, for music and that I feel it and love it. It makes me happy to be me.

    S.... U....

    I absolutely love elton!😊

    S.... U....

    Music is the best time machine known to mankind

    Early Elton John rocks!

  10. g.... a....

    this song just eradicated politically correct.

    g.... a....

    politically correct = supporting royalty (in UK), "hero" soldiers, capitalism and consuming needless products. It also now includes feminism

  11. S.... S....

    Just heard this on Friday the 13th, 2018 yesterday.

  12. K.... C....

    An underrated album. This song rocks!

  13. C.... W....

    EJ was in the midst of finding himself during this album, and he found himself rocking balls. I can deal with that.

  14. J.... O....

    Brilliant upload! A few years later in 1977, Wednesday night on the 13TH of July there was no visible NYC skyline. Living just east of the World Trade Center, pure darkness. The 77 blackout happened.

  15. M.... A....

    that's labelle go head my girls sounds good

  16. E.... S....

    Haha I'm listening to this on the thirteenth of July on an actual Wednesday night haha! How ironic is that???

    E.... S....

    I turned it on purposely. Today is the day for this song!!

    E.... S....

    Omg right? It's so fitting and btw how did Elton know the the 13th of July was on a Wednesday night? Haha so weird

  17. s.... ....

    Derrick Anderson suggested I buy the CD Of Rock of the Westies:
    I own 3 albums, 1 cassette tape, 2 CD's, one for home and car, 1 CD Remastered. I will even buy an SA-CD if it ever comes out or a Remastered Hi-Res 192Khz 24bit. So Elton's got my money... Thousands and thousands!

    RonnieFriend was just kind enough to upload this song.
    When I can only stream... I can do it here... Thanks again Ronnie.

  18. N.... J....
