The Ballad Of John And Yoko Lyrics - As It Happened: The Classic Interviews - 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 gonna to crucify me 

Finally made the plane into Paris 

Honeymooning down by the Seine 

Peter Brown called to say 

You can make it okay 

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 gonna to crucify me 

So from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton 

Talking in our beds for a week 

The news people 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 gonna 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 

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 gonna to crucify me 

Caught the 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 gonna to crucify me 

The way things are going 

They're gonna to crucify me
