The way in which John later said that "Dig a Pony" was a garbage, nonsense, gibberish song of his own that had no meaning, yet some people suspect it was him writing to Paul about Paul (the things that he admires most about Paul, and the things that also frustrate him about Paul)... and in the Let it Be recording sessions Paul told him that he loved it when John first played it for him, and John drily said something back along the lines of "well I love it too, sometimes." 🤔 HMMM... it really makes u think...

"Dig A Pony" lyrics (with possible Paul references highlighted by me, though there might be others that I am just not picking up on):

I dig a pony

Well, you can celebrate anything you want

Yes, you can celebrate anything you want

Oh

I do a road hog

Well, you can penetrate any place you go

Yes, you can penetrate any place you go

I told you so, all I want is you

Everything has got to be just like you want it to

Because . . .

I pick a moon dog

Well, you can radiate everything you are

Yes, you can radiate everything you are

Oh now

I roll a stoney

Well, you can imitate everyone you know

Yes, you can imitate everyone you know

I told you so, all I want is you

Everything has got to be just like you want it to

Because . . .

Oh now

I feel the wind blow

Well, you can indicate everything you see

Yes, you can indicate everything you see

Oh now

I dug a pony

Well, you can syndicate any boat you row

Yeah, you can syndicate any boat you row

I told you so, all I want is you

Everything has got to be just like you want it to

Because . . .

Going insane today over the implication that I heard in the above podcast that "I Want You" was not written by John about Yoko originally, and that the song was perhaps instead about how much he wrestled with wanting to be with Paul, as the "she's so heavy" part was originally a separate song that was only combined with it later on during the Abbey Road recording sessions.

In my bones I just feel that this is likely the case. The whole dark, ominous, lusty feeling of the song just seems way more like something you'd write about somebody who you were not already with in a totally reciprocated sense and that you struggled deeply over your desire for, you know what I mean?
