Billy Shears! What would you think if I sang out of tune? Would you stand up and walk out on me? Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song And I'll try not to sing out of key Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends Hmm, I get high with a little help from my friends Hmm, gonna try with a little help from my friends What do I do when my love is away? (Does it worry you to be alone?) How do I feel by the end of the day? (Are you sad because you're on your own?) No, I get by with a little help from my friends Hmm, get high with a little help from my friends Hmm, gonna try with a little help from my friends Do you need anybody? I need somebody to love Could it be anybody? I want somebody to love Would you believe in a love at first sight? Yes, I'm certain that it happens all the time What do you see when you turn out the light? I can't tell you, but I know it's mine Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends Hmm, get high with a little help from my friends Hmm, I'm gonna try with a little help from my friends Do you need anybody? I just need someone to love Could it be anybody? I want somebody to love Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends Hmm, gonna try with a little help from my friends Oh, I get high with a little help from my friends Yes, I get by with a little help from my friends With a little help from my friends

A canção foi gravada pelos Beatles para o álbum de 1967 *Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band* e ocupa a segunda faixa, entrando logo após o aplauso da faixa-título.
Foi escrita em parceria por John Lennon e Paul McCartney, mas a voz principal ficou a cargo do baterista Ringo Starr, que interpreta o personagem “Billy Shears”.
A versão de Joe Cocker, lançada em 1968, chegou ao topo da parada de singles do Reino Unido e acabou se tornando um hino associado ao festival de Woodstock.
Em 1978 a gravação dos Beatles foi relançada como single junto com “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band”, alcançando a posição 63 nas paradas britânicas e 71 no Billboard Hot 100 dos EUA.
Ringo Starr costuma incluir “With a Little Help from My Friends” em seus shows como artista solo, mantendo a música viva nos palcos.
