"Dizzy Miss Lizzy" is a song composed and sung by Larry Williams in 1958.

The song has been covered many times, including — most famously — by the Beatles on the 1965 "Help!" album, though the recording was initially intended for the 1965 American Beatles compilation "Beatles VI" along with the Larry Williams cover "Bad Boy", recorded by the Beatles on the same day. Paul McCartney has stated that he believes this song to be one of the Beatles best recordingsFact|date=April 2008. It features loud, rhythmic instrumentation, along with John Lennon's particularly rousing vocals. The song also appeared in a live solo version by Lennon on the Plastic Ono Band's "Live Peace in Toronto 1969".

In the United Kingdom, the Beatles' version first appeared on the album "Help!". In North America, it was included on "Beatles VI".

The title is playfully misleading, the actual lyric being, "You make "me" dizzy, Miss Lizzy".

The song was originally thought about by band manager Brian Epstein, and was later introduced to Ringo Starr, the band's drummer. He made sure that the band recorded it after loving its upbeat rhythm and interesting lyrics.
