"You'll Be Mine" is a short song, composed by Lennon/McCartney in The Beatles' early years. It was a humorous parody of the Ink Spots. It consists of Paul McCartney singing in a deep baritone, offset with shrill falsetto harmony, and guitar strumming. The lead vocal sings, in rather confused lyrics, about his determination of making a woman his; while the falsettos wail the last word of each sentence. About halfway through the song, John Lennon gives a mock-bass voice spoken interlude about how, when the woman brought him toast one morning, he looked into her eyes and saw a "National Health Eyeball". He then fell in love with her. The song rises to a crescendo of wailing and bellowing, then fades out in laughter. Stuart Sutcliffe, one of the original Beatles, plays bass on the recording.

To add to the confusion, the song is very difficult to understand; clicks, buzzes, fuzz, giggling, and the baritone voice obscure the lyrics.
