Best Answer

The lyrics go "Although I'm so tired, I'll have another cigarette / and curse Sir Walter Raleigh, he was such a stupid get". So it seems likely Sir Walter Raleigh is mentioned because of his connection to cigarettes. This is likely as Sir Walter Raleigh is known for having introduced tobacco (and potatoes) to England.

Who was The Beatles' producer?

George Martin (knighted in the 1990s) produced nearly all The Beatles' records, from their first UK hit "Love Me Do" to their last recordings as a group. They also worked with Bert Kaempfert, who hired the Beatles to record with Tony Sheridan in 1961, and Phil Spector, who post-produced the Let It Be sessions.Alan Parsons and Glyn Johns deserve special mention; Parsons sometimes filled in for George Martin during 1969, when Martin became tired of watching the Beatles bicker during sessions and stopped attending them, and Johns remixed portions of Let It Be before Spector came on board.
