The Ballad Of John And Yoko Lyrics - The U.s. Vs. John Lennon - John Lennon

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 

Fin'lly made the plane into Paris 

Honeymooning 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're 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 choc'late cake in a bag 

The newspapers said 

"She's gone to his head 

They look just like two Gurus in a 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 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 going to crucify me
