I don't think so. They were more into rock n roll covers, like Roll Over Beethoven and songs like that.

don't think so they were more of a rock & roll band

Several, their early years were full of Motown covers including their more famous efforts "Please Mr. Postman", "You Really Got A Hold On Me", "Twist and Shout" and "Money". There were many more lesser known tracks before they became famous.

More than one.

My favourite is Barrett Strong's "Money", on which John took on lead vocals. Great version.

EDIT: To be painfully technical, the Isley Brothers recorded both "Shout" and "Twist & Shout" while they were not Motown artists yet. But as they later joined the label in 1965, I'm just splitting (dog)hairs.

they did covers...

but i dont think they ever did like motown-motown....

cuz they were rock n roll baby!! lol

Are you perhaps remembering a Motown-style Beatles song?

The Beatles recorded with Capitol and Apple records, and there was another one but it's slipping my mind right now.

Motown was it's own sound, but it was the sound that came from the artists who recorded at Motown Records, and the Beatles never recorded there.

I used to have a great 2-LP album that was other musicians recording Beatles songs. I liked it and i'm wondering if you're thinking of something like that.

AHA! ...i was looking for a link for you to the album i used to own and i found this album called, "Motown Sings the Beatles."
