Der Song erschien auf dem Yellow Submarine Album. Er war ein Outtake aus den Sessions zu Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. George Harrisons Beitrag war dann schliesslich Within You Without You. Die Regel war: Maximal ein Harrison-Song pro LP. Genau diese interne Regel kritisiert der Song ironisch.

Lyrics

[Verse 1] If you're listening to this song You may think the chords are going wrong But they're not We just wrote it like that [Verse 2] When you're listening late at night You may think the band are not quite right But they are They just play it like that [Chorus 1] It doesn't really matter what chords I play What words I say or time of day it is As it's only a Northern song [Instrumental Break] [Chorus 2] It doesn't really matter what clothes I wear Or how I fare or if my hair is brown When it's only a Northern song [Verse 3] If you think the harmony Is a little dark and out of key You're correct There's nobody there And I told you there's no one there [Instrumental Outro]
