"She's got a ticket to ride / But she don't care"
According to John Lennon, the title of this track from "Help!" harks back to the Beatles' early days in Hamburg, Germany, where prostitution was legal but streetwalkers were required to carry a document certifying a clean bill of health. John dubbed that certificate a "ticket to ride."
