What is the song come together about?

In a Playboy Interview published shortly after his death on December 8, 1980, Lennon explained that "Come Together" was written with Dr. Timothy Leary, the controversial 1960s counterculture guru, in mind. In 1969, Leary attempted to run for governor of California against Republican incumbent Ronald Reagan. Leary's short-lived campaign used the slogan "Come together, join the party." Lennon worked on a song with the intention of offering it to Leary's campaign, but the song (and Leary's candidacy) never really got off the ground. Lennon eventually wrote the internationally famous version of "Come Together," which became a No. 1 hit from the "Abbey Road" album.

Lennon said in the Playboy Interview that the lyrics for "Come Together" were "gobbledygook." Interestingly, he was sued for using the line "Here come old flat-top" because he apparently borrowed it from the 1956 Chuck Berry song "You Can't Catch Me." Lennon and Berry's publisher settled the matter out of court. Part of the agreement was that Lennon would record other songs by the publisher. The result was Lennon's 1975 solo album "Rock 'N' Roll," which includes Berry's "You Can't Catch Me" and "Sweet Little Sixteen."
