The Ballad Of John And Yoko

The Ballad Of John
And Yoko - Beatles

Standing in the dock at southampton,
Trying to get to holland or france
The man in the mac said, "you've got to go 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 ok,
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
