McCartney, Paul - Press Lyrics






Darling, I Love You Very, Very, Very Much,
And I Really Am Relying On Your Touch.
But With All These People Listening In,
I Don't Know Where I Ought To Begin.
Maybe We Could Hit Upon A Word,
Something That The Others Haven't Heard,
When You Want Me To Love You,
Just Tell Me To Press.

Right There, That's It. Yes. When You Feel The Stress
Don't Just Stand There, Tell Me To Press.

You Can Give Me What I Want I Must Confess,
My Body Needs Attention My Mind Is In A Mess,
Oklahoma Was Never Like This.
Never Like This, It Was Never Like This,
Ever Like This, Say Was It Ever Like This?
Oklahoma Was Never Like This.
It Was Never Like This ...

Darling, I Know It Really Wouldn't Be A Crime,
If I Say I Want To Love You All The Time.
But With All These People Listening In,
I Don't Know Where I Ought To Begin.
Maybe We Should Have A Secret Code,
Before We Both Get Ready To Explode.
When You Want Me To Love You,
Just Tell Me To Press. Press ...

Right There, That's It. Yes.
When You Feel The Stress,
Don't Just Stand There.
Won't You Tell Me To Press?

  5. M.... K....

    Interesting seeing a legend scramble for a sound in 1986. It's as humanizing as it is inspiring.

  6. y.... ....

    2018 and you're still making me smile, Sir Paul😊

  7. A.... C....

    paul hates the album and this song. understandable. yet there are 2 good songs on 'press' and one great one.

  8. i.... w....

    The video is really sweet with Paul being his usual charming self.

  9. L.... B....

    Love Paul.....

  10. L.... L....

    that's a cute video just love him

  11. r.... ....

    UK was the best in the eighties Paul McCartney, Lady Di and Maggie Thatcher, the pop songs were a good combo

  12. L.... S....

    I like this video, Thanks Dude!!!

  13. 1.... ....

    So underrated! This song with the video is just so uplifting- how can you not absolutely love it?

  14. I.... H....

    Darling, I love you very, very, very much,
    And I really am relying on your touch.
    But with all these people listening in,
    I don't know where I ought to begin.
    Maybe we could hit upon a word,
    Something that the others haven't heard,
    When you want me to love you,
    Just tell me to press. Right there, that's it. Yes. When you feel the stress
    Don't just stand there, tell me to press. You can give me what I want I must confess,
    My body needs attention my mind is in a mess,
    Oklahoma was never like this.
    Never like this, it was never like this,
    Ever like this, say was it ever like this?
    Oklahoma was never like this.
    It was never like this Darling, I know it really wouldn't be a crime,
    If I say I want to love you all the time.
    But with all these people listening in,
    I don't know where I ought to begin.
    Maybe we should have a secret code,
    Before we both get ready to explode.
    When you want me to love you,
    Just tell me to press. Press Right there, that's it. Yes.
    When you feel the stress,
    Don't just stand there.
    Won't you tell me to press?ソングライター: Paul MccartneyPress 歌詞 © Kobalt Music Publishing Ltd.

  15. W.... 1....

    While we’re on the subject of the London Underground, I remember vaguely seeing two versions of a health club advertisement on the walls of the tube. Any idea where I could find what those health club ads looked like,

  16. T.... S....

    Oklahoma was never like this ; yeah no subways

  17. k.... ....

    I fucking hate the tube but if Macca was on it, I would probably smile.

  18. A.... M....

    I love him 😍

  19. S.... ....

    Awwwww.......

  20. C.... F....

    Been a fan of Paul since 1982 and remember when this came out. I wouldn't fancy filming on the London Underground but look at him go - bringing fun to the masses. Really fab track too!

  21. R.... L....

    Is it just me or is this man going through the tunnels displaying his virility over everyone? :) Of course he has every right to..lol

  22. M.... S....

    The gall of the great man is impressive, and it's a really good song. I don't think he helped his reputation in the '80s, though, with some truly awful chat show appearances on things like Wogan. That whole thumbs-aloft persona was embarrassing even for fans (like me).

  23. i.... ....

    This song and video clip always brings a smile to the face :-)

  24. w.... ....

    When Paul and camera crew arrived at the station the staff were going to wave them through with out paying. Paul said no, and he bought tickets for everybody on his crew. He could see the headlines in next mornings papers: ''Millionaire Beatle Paul McCartney travel for free on London Underground''.

  25. w.... ....

    Anybody notice at 2.22 the girl wearing a Paul McCartney T shirt?

    w.... ....

    YES........I didn't notice.

  26. b.... ....

    Paul never puts this track on any of his compilations - I lurv this song, it's so eighties!

    b.... ....

    blackpeter70 yes, on "Pure McCartney"

  27. M.... ....

    Paul will be recongnized when will be died, and it's a pity for the stupid people

  28. c.... ....

    Paul hit #21 on the Billboard Hot 100 on 9/13/86. Thanks for posting it! :)

  29. C.... L....

    Thanks for posting!!! I just love this video!!!

  30. J.... D....

    "Oklahoma" as used in the song is a reference to the musical "Oklahoma" not just a word thrown in as some critics at the time thought.

  31. m.... k....

    The least selling album of Paul ever?

  32. P.... M....

    one of my favorites..... but my all time favorite is 'Yesterday'.... still affects me the same today as it did in 1965.....

  33. J.... S....

    Must be a good feeling to just walk out side and make every one who sees you happy and smile. The power of a beatle

    J.... S....

    That's Sir Paul for ya❤💚💜💙💛
    No wonder he was my mom's fav

  34. g.... ....

    Such a feel-good video. Paul in his 40s looking great, having fun filming this video. Though I've never been crazy about "Press to Play" I really love this particular song. It's so 80s in a good sense.

  35. j.... ....

    OK; I'm straight, but that was one handsome MoFo!

    j.... ....

    jellyfish53  I think a man crush on Paul is perfectly natural.  The guy's perfect and always has been.

    j.... ....

    He sure is.

  36. �.... V....

    4:13 Giorgio Moroder?? :)

    �.... V....

    Yeah, that's totally Moroder! :-D  By the way, the guy at 3:16 also reminds me of someone famous, I can't figure out whom. Paul said it was great to have so many cool-looking people around.

    �.... V....

    Probably yes.

  37. B.... L....

    still better than 99.5 of the shite out there today

  38. f.... ....

    A good song, and a fun video.

  39. d.... ....

    Reminds me of Lessons In Love by Level 42. Just a bit.

  40. F.... t....

    This is why you always carry a pen or a marker with you. The guy at 4:06 was probably kicking himself that he didn't get Paul's autograph... Until he saw the VIDEO!

  41. T.... ....

    My God..!!! Paul in the subway...!!!

    T.... ....

    TheRexmoon Who says he's not Underground.

  42. F.... D....

    Why does he die his fucking hair.. Looks great here and would look good with Grey Hair.

  43. w.... ....

    They were really lucky making this video in pre-selfie-era. And pre-smartphone era as well! With everyone keeping eyes on screens, the passengers would hardly even notice Paul and the crew these days )))

    w.... ....

    Then again, he might have been barraged with instant photo requests.

    w.... ....

    winni223 Wanna bet!!!!

  44. C.... B....

    why couldn't I be that lucky?? Love this video...always have!!! Such a cutie!!

  45. n.... ....

    Dat ass and dat sass ;)

  46. R.... D....

    *strange* he has more grey hair here then he does now...wonder how that happens...++++ ya still got it baby~

  47. R.... H....

    i notice the video is available in 1080p , but is there actually a difference in quality if you play it in 480p or 1080p? i did not notice any but maybe the change did not kick in or something

    R.... H....

    That's probably on YouTube's end. When I uploaded the file, it gave an HD option. I think the sound may be better quality between 480 and 1080.

  48. E.... O....

    One of my favorite (and unrecognized) McCartney songs.

    E.... O....

    Yeah,  my all time favorite.  Got out of a ticket in 1976 on the way to Cincy to see the Wings Over America tour.  Cop asked me where I was going in such a hurry, I told him, and he said "Well have a good time!" and that was it.

    E.... O....

    It isn't one of my favs but I like it.

    E.... O....

    Edward Owen I saw Wing's Over Wembley. My first ever pop concert I was about 22. Fabtastic!!

    E.... O....

    One of my favorite McCartney songs as well. The video is great.

  49. M.... R....

    Jake, buddy i boughht Press UK remix single in 1986. I am an old C......lol and PRESS TO PLAY album.
    Been chekin out george harrison alot lately. Becoming my favorite and not just Beatles. His songs are beautiful

    M.... R....

    Been a big john lennon fan all my life. Iv also been listening alot to george harrison for the last year or so. BEAUTIFUL GIRL is amazing and ballads from LIVING IN THE MATERIAL WORLD are beautiful, tho my fav is SOMEPLACE ELSE from CLOUD9

  50. J.... [....

    Love this

  51. F.... C....

    Totally Tubular!

  52. T.... ....

    Always thought about that, too!

  53. j.... ....

    How are people not mobbing him? I mean honestly. If I saw him out on a subway, I would at least be like, "OMG Paul McCartney." I wouldn't like hassle though. lol

  54. D.... H....

    Always fresh
