Lyric discussion by Capt Aviator 

This song WAS written by Paul when he was only 15.

And it was inspired by his father, not by the Beatles or record companies. Paul's dad was a Jazz band leader in the 20s, so Paul was used to hearing jazz like melodies all the time...which is where he draws the inspiration for this song's melodies.

And in the summer the song was written, his dad had just turned 64, and Paul just plugged the words in with the melody...

@Capt Aviator Jim McCartney turned 64 on July 7th, 1966. Paul had just turned 24. Sorry Captain, but you story does not add up.
