Lyrics
Come on, you know it's gonna be alright
And we're gonna dance all night
Come on, you know
Get up, stand up if you feel alive
I only wanna see you smile
Come on, you know
Beautiful people, come out to play
Brothers and sisters, it's time
So let's start living, be thankful and give in
We're only here for a short while
I think it's coming home again
Show love, I'm sick of acting like I'm tough
Come on, baby gives a hug
Come on, you know
Freedom, I can feel It everywhere
So get your hands up in the air
Come on you know
Beautiful people, come out to play
Brothers and sisters, it's time
So let's start living, be thankful and give in
We're only here for a short while
I think it's coming home again
I think it's coming home again
I think it's coming home again
I think it's coming home again
Beautiful people, come out to play
Brothers and sisters, it's time
So let's start living, be thankful and give in
We're only here for a short while
I think it's coming home again
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
I think it's coming home again
I think it's coming home again
I think it's coming home again

Notes
"C'mon You Know" is the title track and third single from Liam Gallagher's third solo studio album of the same name, released on April 1, 2022, via Warner Records.
The song marks a upbeat, anthemic shift in Gallagher's style, incorporating elements like saxophone and a gospel choir to create a feel-good, summery vibe that Gallagher himself dubbed “the sound of the summer.”It was first performed live on March 26, 2022, at the Royal Albert Hall for a Teenage Cancer Trust gig.
Written solely by Liam Gallagher and produced by Andrew Wyatt (known for his work with artists like Adele), the track features Vampire Weekend's Ezra Koenig on saxophone, Dan McDougall on drums and percussion, Mike Moore on guitar, and a large choir including The Music Confectionary Choir and vocalists like Phebe Althea Edwards and Angel Williams-Silvera.
Additional instrumentation includes Wyatt on piano, bass, Moog synthesizer, Mellotron, electric piano, and harmonica. The song was mixed by Mark "Spike" Stent and mastered by Randy Merrill.
Critically, the song was praised for its boisterous, danceable energy and as a fresh, optimistic addition to Gallagher's catalog.
However, some fan reactions were mixed; for instance, Reddit discussions from around the release noted it as a disappointment with "boring" lyrics, though others appreciated the backing vocals and overall vibe.
