Song lyrics
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

Yeah, I know. When I was younger and didn't know about sites like this I used to listen to it over and over and over again to catch and understand all the lyrics
Great song!

This song further confirms my dislike for John Lennon.

* offtopic :
I think it's funny how that certain person above gave the song all 5s by accident. Yay, it stays brilliant!



I just love this song.
I'm not exactly sure why.
It's pretty rad.
And I also dislike Yoko, but the song is great.
