I'll Cry Instead
The Beatles
Written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney; released on "A Hard Day's Night"
album
This is a kind of a country song, they wanted it to the film "A Hard Day's
Night" instead of "Can't Buy Me Love", and put a verse to the end of the
song to lenghten it. But on the album "A Hard Day's Night" you find the
original version.
