“Dizzy, Miss Lizzy” is a song composed and recorded by Larry Williams in 1958. It shares many similarities with the Little Richard song “Good Golly Miss Molly”.
Dizzy Miss Lizzie had been a part of The Beatles’ live repertoire since their earliest days. It was originally released as a single by Williams in 1958, with Slow Down on the b-side.
Although it wasn’t intended for the Help! LP, The Beatles evidently decided their version was good enough to be included.
“I Need You” is a song by the Beatles and appears on the album Help!. It is the second George Harrison song the band released[2] after two albums without any songwriting contribution from Harrison. The song was performed in their second film, Help! and is the second video produced showing George Harrison singing lead vocal on a song (after “I’m Happy Just To Dance With You” from A Hard Day’s Night).

They’re going to put me in the movies
They’re going to make a big star out of me
We’ll make a film about a man that’s sad and lonely
And all I got to do is act naturally
Well, I’ll bet you I’m going to be a big star
Might win an Oscar you can never tell
The movie’s going to make me a big star
‘Cause I can play the part so well
Well I hope you come and see me in the movies
Then I’ll know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that ever hit the big time
And all I got to do is act naturally
We’ll make the scene about a man that’s sad and lonely
And begging down upon his bended knee
I’ll play the part but I won’t need rehearsing
All I have to do is act naturally
Well, I’ll bet you I’m going to be a big star
Might win an Oscar you can never tell
The movie’s going to make me a big star
‘Cause I can play the part so well
Well I hope you come and see me in the movies
Then I’ll know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that ever hit the big time
And all I got to do is act naturally

(Help!) I need somebody
(Help!) Not just anybody
(Help!) You know I need someone
(Help!)
(When)
When I was younger
(When I was young)
So much younger than today
(I never need)
I never needed anybody’s help in any way
(Now)
But now these days are gone
(These days are gone)
I’m not so self-assured
(And now I find)
Now I find I’ve changed my mind
And opened up the doors
Help me if you can, I’m feeling down
And I do appreciate you being ’round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won’t you please, please help me?
(Now)
And now my life has changed
(My life has changed)
In oh, so many ways
(My indepen)
My independence seems to vanish in the haze
(But)
But every now and then
(Now and then)
I feel so insecure
(I know that I)
I know that I just need you like
I never done before
Help me if you can, I’m feeling down
And I do appreciate you being ’round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won’t you please, please help me?
When I was younger
So much younger than today
I never needed anybody’s help in any way
(Now)
But now these days are gone
(These days are gone)
I’m not so self-assured
(And now I find)
Now I find I’ve changed my mind
I’ve opened up the doors
Help me if you can, I’m feeling down
And I do appreciate you being ’round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won’t you please, please help me?
Help me, help me, ooh!
