Historical Research• The song was written by John Lennon . Lennon
was inspired by Timothy Leary’s failed campaign for governor of California titled” Let’s get it together” against Ronald Reagan, which was in possession of marijuana. During the time, The band members felt that Yoko One was having a distraction on John. If Paul left that the 3 could continue on with the band , Paul was usually busy wth his other band so it was hard for the other band members to get a hold of him if they were going to try and make music or rehearse. George was in his own little world at that time , playing different styles of stringed instruments and doing the basic teachings of the Yogi.
