Beatles, The/blue jay way lyrics

Question
i've been trying to figure out what they're singing in the backing vocals on this song - the third verse they're obviously repeating the last word in that line of the song, but in the second verse, there's something else going on behind the main lyrics ("well it only goes to show...")

i can't find these lyrics anywhere on the net, so if you know where to look or can decipher them yourself, it would be much appreciated.  thanks in advance!

Answer
Hi sean,
first of all sorry for the delay but I had no internet connection for a couple of days...
Well I've listened and I can't understand what they are singing.
I'll have to pass it on my pc and try to extract the bit you're talking about playing it backwards or at slower speed.
But unfortunately my computer will be out of work for at least a week because I'm formatting the hd.
If you want you can write to me at niqmara@libero.it so that as soon as I have the answer I will send it directly to you.
Let me know.
'bye
N.

I`m an italian Beatle fan who`s been studying, playing, reading The Beatles for more than twentyfive years. I can answer about recording sessions, lyrics, biography, instruments and more. I`ve been playng bass guitar and their music for years and know pretty much about their music and composition. I own a double complete discography (on vinil and on cd) and lots of books about them. I regret not to be so expert about their films and personal careers, but I think I can answer nearly any question about their life and music in the period 1940 - 1970.

Experience

Usually, no Trivia on The Beatles leaves me without words. Moreover I've been playing bass guitar and their music for nearly twenty years and I can discuss on this matter quite deeply. Please no questions about vintage Lps', collectors items' or memorabilia value.
