Ringo Starr - You Belong To Me

From The Album Stop And Smell The Roses
"You Belong to Me" is a pop music ballad from the 1950s. The singer reminds his/her lover that, whatever exotic locales and sights he/she experiences, "you belong to me". It is credited to three writers: Pee Wee King, Redd Stewart, and Chilton Price. Actually, Price wrote most of the song, and ceded equal credit to the other two in exchange for their work in promoting it. King and Stewart did rearrange the song because it was written as a war song during World War II and changed the title to "You Belong To Me" along with arranging the music. Price had previously had success with another hit which she had written, "Slow Poke", under a similar arrangement with the two men

Ringo: Vocals and Drums
George Harrison: First Guitar
Al Kooper: Piano and synthetizer
Ray Cooper: Piano, synthetizer and tambourine

"Pee Wee King, Redd Stewart and Chilton Price)
See the pyramids across the nile,
See the sunrise on a tropic isle,
Just remember, darling, all the while,
You belong to me.

See the jungle when it's wet with rain,
See the ocean from a silver plane,
Just remember till you're home again,
You belong to me.

I'll be so alone without you,
Darling, you'll be lonesome too and blue.

See the market place in old algiers,
Send me photographs and souvenirs,
Just remember till your dream appears,
You belong to me.

Oh, i'll be so alone without you, ("oh, i will, honey")
Darling, darling, you'll be lonesome too,
And you're gonna be blue.

See the pyramids across the nile,
See the sunrise on a tropic isle,
Just remember, darling, all the while,
You belong to me,
You belong to me.


(just to little ol' me"

LOL this version is disgusting

[fox45rpm]

Joe Stafford and later the Duprees did this the way it was meant to be sung.

Ringo's still cool though.

@EtoileLituanienne This is a more modernized version of a classic, well for the 70's anyway...I like it! . More upbeat...crisper! Ringo is the best though!

See the market place in old Algiers

Ringo is awesome but his version of this song sucks.
