The Ballad Of John And Yoko Lyrics by John Lennon, Paul McCartney / Lead Vocals: John Lennon Get All 10 Songs From This Album Songs Sent Via Email After Payment 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 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 The way things are going They're going to crucify me Released on LP on Feb. 26, 1970 on Apple Records. Released as a Single on June 4, 1969. CLICK HERE To Return To Main Lyrics Index Page CLICK HERE To Return To The Hey Jude LP Main Page

Welcome to the BEATLES MIDI/MP3 & LYRICS Homepage. My new idea to add lyrics and sound bytes of every song the Beatles released as the World's greatest rock band ever to have lived on this Earth. Along with the lyrics and MP3 soundbytes are also the MIDI files and the many, many images from all their albums. The years from 1963-71 was such an era in the history of rock and roll, it was the Beatles who influenced the United States as the British Invasion was mainly a function of the band who started it all as soon afterwards, many bands including the Rolling Stones, The Who, Yardbirds and many other bands from Great Britain came to the US for fame and fortune. My favorite era and still is are the Sixties. It all started for the Beatles with the two vinyl albums: Introducing The Beatles and Meet The Beatles. Well besides the lyrics of every Beatles song, I have now included a 30-second MP3 sound byte of every Beatles song, perfect length for that ringtone you always desired. Both the MP3's and MIDI's on this site are FREE to download, but if you do download a bunch, please at least consider a small donation. You can also purchase a special collection of 1 of 4 music CD's from my Music Store or purchase an album of MP3 songs based on the original LP's as they were released here in the United States on both Capitol Records and the new Beatles company; Apple Records. Each album includes all full length MP3's from one of the original albums all in 192 kbps quality. All songs are tagged and include special original artwork. To purchurse any MP3 LP/Album, simply visit the Album page that you desire or click on the BIG BEATLES INDEX BANNER shown below here. There are also smaller banners where you can just purchase one song of your choice for just one dollar. Most of the LP's are just $5.
