DON'T LET ME DOWN (The Beatles) written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney performed by Reid Jamieson from SONGS OF 69 – Independent https://reidjamieson.com/songs-of-69/

Canada’s Reid Jamieson continues his reign as the crooning king of killer covers. From Led Zeppelin to the theme from Sesame Street, this eclectic retro collection was originally recorded in March 2011, as a surprise birthday present for Reid’s wife to celebrate the year of her birth – 1969. This put the kaibosh on her plans to start lying about her age, but was warmly received by his partner in all things nonetheless. No easy task to record this many songs in secret when you share a one bedroom apartment with the person you are hiding it from – Reid had to stash a rented snare drum in their laundry basket for weeks! Released only as demos until now, a decade later, this album finally gets a proper mix, mastering and release, bringing renewed energy to these timeless classics.

Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Nobody ever loved me like she does
Oh she does,
Yes she does
And if somebody loved me like she do
Oh she do me,
Yes she does
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
I'm in love for the first time
Don't you know it's gonna last
It's a love that lasts forever
It's a love that had no past
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
And from the first time that she really done me
Oh she done me,
She done me good
I guess nobody ever really done me
Oh she done me,
She done me good
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
I'm in love for the first time
Don't you know it's gonna last
It's a love that lasts forever
It's a love that had no past
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
