This is tribute to John Lennon, who was shot and killed the year before. Harrison remained friends with Lennon after The Beatles broke up.
In an interview after John Lennon was shot, George said that he originally had written most of the lyrics for Ringo, but with Lennon's assassination, he rewrote the lyrics and told of how he looked up to John.
Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney and Linda McCartney played on this along with Denny Laine from McCartney's band Wings.
