JOHN LENNON "The Ballad Of John And Yoko"

JOHN LENNON "The Ballad Of John And Yoko"

Standing in the dock at Southampton,---Trying to get to Holland or France.
The man in the mac said, "You've got to turn back".---

You know they didn't even give us a chance.

Christ you know it ain't easy,-----You know how hard it can be.
The way things are going------They're going to crucify me.

Finally made the plane into Paris,-------Honey mooning down by the Seine.
Peter Brown called to say,---"You can make it O.K.,

You can get married in Gibraltar, near Spain".--------Christ you know it ain't easy,
You know how hard it can be.-----The way things are going
They're going to crucify me.-----

Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton,--Talking in our beds for a week.
The newspapers said, "Say what you doing in bed?"
I said, "We're only trying to get us some peace".

Christ you know it ain't easy,-----You know how hard it can be.
The way things are going---They're going to crucify me.

Saving up your money for a rainy day,------Giving all your clothes to charity.
Last night the wife said,------"Oh boy, when you're dead
You don't take nothing with you---But your soul - think!"
Made a lightning trip to Vienna,
eating chocolate cake in a bag.
The newspapers said, "She's gone to his head,
They look just like two gurus in drag".
Christ you know it ain't easy,--------You know how hard it can be.
The way things are going---They're going to crucify me.
Caught an early plane back to London.
Fifty acorns tied in a sack.
The men from the press said, "We wish you success,
It's good to have the both of you back".
Christ you know it ain't easy,--You know how hard it can be.
The way things are going---They're going to crucify me.
The way things are going---They're going to crucify me.
