A lighthearted, fairly meaningless blues jam by Paul McCartney.

“Get Back” went through numerous iterations, many of which are publicly available. The two most noteworthy versions are the single version and the album version. In one of its earlier forms, “Get Back” was a satirical political tune, with lyrics including “too many Pakistanis living in a council flat”. McCartney later explained these lyrics by saying:

When we were doing Let It Be, there were a couple of verses to “Get Back” which were actually not racist at all — they were anti-racist. There were a lot of stories in the newspapers then about Pakistanis crowding out flats — you know, living 16 to a room or whatever. So in one of the verses of “Get Back,” which we were making up on the set of Let It Be, one of the outtakes has something about ‘too many Pakistanis living in a council flat’ – that’s the line. Which to me was actually talking out against overcrowding for Pakistanis… If there was any group that was not racist, it was the Beatles.

John Lennon believed that “Get Back” was aimed at his lover, Yoko Ono, who had begun accompanying him to many of the Beatles' recording sessions. Paul adamantly denies that this song was about Ono, but he’s admitted that her presence during recording sessions was slightly upsetting to him at the time.
