Lyrics - The Ballad Of John And Yoko by The 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
Honeymooning down by the
Seine
Peter
Brown call 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'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 chocolate cake in a bag
The newspapers said she's gone to his head
They look just like to
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 the early plane back to
London
Fifty acorns tied in a sack
The men from the press said we wish you successs
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
