Unreleased song
“Thirty Days (To Come Back Home),” also written “30 Days,” is a 1955 song and chart single by Chuck Berry. Berry wrote this song to pay tribute to Hank Williams’ country music.
According to Mark Lewisohn in “The Complete Beatles Chronicle“, The Beatles performed “Thirty Days” regularly in 1960 and 1961, with John Lennon on lead vocals. However, no known recordings from that period exist.
On January 7, 1969, during the “Get Back” sessions, John Lennon and Paul McCartney played a version of the track. On January 21, The Beatles played a version of “Forty Days,” a variant recorded under that title by Cliff Richard and Ronnie Hawkins.
