Beatle songs: Lovely Rita by ric gustafson
One day, a friend from the US was visiting Paul. He noticed a female traffic warden. The friend called them meter maids. Paul liked that term and began to experiment on the piano. Paul came up with ' lovely Rita meter maid. Paul wrote lyrics about a shy office worker who was issued a parking ticket. He tries to seduce the meter maid to avoid the fine.
The song was on the album ' Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band'.
The album was released in June 1967.
