What's that from?

"When I was a robber in Boston place
you gathered round me with your fine embrace"

Or is it just Paul improvising or an incomplete song?

Wasn't Boston Place that place that street where Apple had just installed a computer lab?

Yeah... I finally read somewhere that John had mentioned the Black Country then Paul, I guess, "retaliated" or continued or whatever by saying Boston Place, etc...

I like it though. It's a very cool little thing and fits perfectly before Hey Jude.

You didn't have to look very far.
It's in the booklet that comes with the CD!

But I thought your question was whether or not Paul invented this song or is it a reference to an old standard?
I'd be interested in the answer to that...

Some weird things were said on those Anthology Outtakes. There was this one... I forget which one it was, that they kept on cracking up about something...

Very true revolution 9... that's what makes it so great! you get to here and feel what it was like to be in the studio with the beatles! very cool...

and yeah, zipp, that's where I read it ... but it really does sound like it could be a standard, but the way i read it, it sounded like it was just made up on the spot... but it really
