Songfacts:
The Easybeats formed around five European migrants. Dutch-born Harry Vanda and Dick Diamonde were living at the Villawodd Migrant Hostel when they met 15-year-old English-born Stevie Wright and Scottish-born George Young. Young was the younger brother of Alex (aka George Alexander), who found success in the UK with The Big Six and Grapefruit. The last member to join was English-born Snowy Fleet.
Unlike most other local bands of the day, The Easybeats donned neat matching suits and quickly made an impact at Sydney’s most popular discos like Beatle Village, Surf City and Havana Village. Music publisher Ted Albert signed the band to Albert Productions and EMI/Parlophone.

Lyrics:
Mmmm women, all around the place
Come and see me
Face to face
If you got troubles
I′m the man for you
Then you wont worry
You’ll be smiling too
