I'm A Loser The Beatles Written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney; released on "Beatles For Sale" album This is one of my favourite songs. I like the lyrics, Paul's bassline in the refrains, and the solo which is played by John on harmonica then by George on guitar. You can slightly feel Bob Dylan's influence on this song.
