Filk: "Get Back (Xena Version)"

Filk: Get Back (Xena Version)
to the tune of "Get Back" by The Beatles)
Music and original lyrics © 1969 by Lennon/McCartney.

by Phil D. Hernández

Joxer was a man who thought that he was mighty,
But he couldn't realize
He was only suave when touched by Aphrodite;
Joxer's clumsy otherwise.

Get back,
Get back
To Gabrielle where you belong.
Get back,

Get back
To Gabrielle where you belong.

(spoken:)
Get back, Joxer!

(musical interlude with much keyboarding by Billy Preston)

Gabrielle the bard once lived in Poteidaia,
And she thought her life was gone.
Gabrielle left home the day that she met Xena;
Now the girl's an Amazon.

Get back,
Get back
To Joxer: he's where you belong.
Get back,
Get back
To Joxer: he's where you belong.

(Spoken:)
Get back, Gabrielle.
Your Xena's waiting for you.
With her high-laced boots
And her low-necked leather.
Get on back, Gabrielle!

Get back,
Get back
To Xena where you all belong.
Get back,
Get back
To Xena where you all belong.
