Yeah, you know that album with all those clues with Paul supposed to be Dead... LOL JK I'm not Ringo.... Or am I? Anyhoot, I'm posting this to bring light to an overlooked song which (I really don't even wonder why anymore) contains "clues" but not referencing what you think. "He got JuJu Eyeball, he one Holy :ROLLER: He got, hair down to his knees, got to be a joker he just do what he please First let's address Juju eyeball means en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juju_(disambiguation)Now of course, Juju is the definition some soft of black coffee, oh well be addressing that one too. Of course we know Monkey Finger would be a joint, Coke (lol) Gumboot would be something British I think, toe Jam Football and spinal cracker hinting at someone smelling as a prolonged bath, idk maybe prison? Someone in prison with Juju Eyeball, a Holy Roller.. "He (HOLY) roller coaster, he got Early Warning, he got Muddy Water, he one MOJO filter" (African coffee is made with Juju beans) One and One and One is Three Bad coffee for Charlie, looks like.. (One thing I can tell you is you got to be Free)

By all accounts, John Lennon brought in a song that was almost like one of Ringo's efforts, sounding immediately like a cover version of another song. Spotting this and with Lennon asking for help finishing it, McCartney took charge and got rid of the Chuck Berry sound, slowing it down and 'swamping it up' with his funky bass and piano lines. Lennon, meanwhile, improvised the lyrics but, again, kept plagiarising his source, Chuck Berry's 'You Can't Catch Me' whose lyrics read pretty much the same. So much so that they DID catch him and he was eventually forced to settle the lawsuit by recording a cover of the Berry song and several others from the publisher on his 'Rock 'N' Roll' covers album.
Although people will try to read significance into anything, a comparison of the two songs lyrics may lead you to the conclusion that he just added stream of consciousness improv to Berry's lyrics, not completing the process to the point where he's differentiated the song from its inspiration:
"New Jersey Turnpike in the wee wee hours I was rollin' slowly 'cause of drizzlin' showers Here come a flat-top, he was movin' up with me Then come wavin' goodbye in a little' old souped-up jitney I put my foot on my tank and I began to roll Moanin' siren, 'twas the state patrol So I let out my wings and then I blew my horn Bye bye New Jersey, I've become airborne
Now you can't catch me Baby you can't catch me 'Cause if you get too close, you know I'm gone like a cool breeze"
