At the end of Free As A Bird by the Beatles, it sounds like he's saying "John Lennon" over the ukelele, but if you play it backwards he's actually saying "turned out nice again" which was (ukelele player) George Formby's catchphrase.

Also, though not strictly speaking words, in On The Beach by Cliff and the Shads, during the first guitar solo you can hear Cliff clearing his throat and coughing where someone forgot to close the vocal mic.

And not forgetting the famous "I saw yer!" at the end of Happy Jack by the Who. OK that's not really hidden but I couldn't think of any more.
