Two of Us (Beatles, The, 1970). Live cover performance by Bill Sharkey, Home Studio, Hawaii Kai, HI. 2021-11-09. "Keeping the Oldies Alive"

"Two of Us" was written by Paul McCartney and credited to Lennon/McCartney for the "Let It Be" LP that was released in 1970; the song was the opening track to the album (Whitburn, 2009). The original title for the track was "On Our Way Home" (beatlesebooks.com, 2021). It was during the "Two of Us" recording sessions that George Harrison decided to quit the Beatles; although he did eventually return (beatlesebooks.com, 2021). According to John T. Marck (iamthebeatles.com, 2021), the song was written about his wife Linda; although there is some speculation that the song was written about himself and John Lennon. On the album track, it is John Lennon who provided a bit of banter just before the track begins when he says in a comical voice "I Dig A Pygmy' by Charles Hawtry and the Deaf Aids, phase one in which Doris gets her oats" (songfacts.com, 2021).
