The Ballad of John and Yoko
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 goingThey're gonna crucify me.
Finally made the plane into Paris,Honey mooning down by the Seine.Peter Brown called 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 goingThey're gonna crucify me.
Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton,Talking in our beds for a week.The newspaper 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 goingThey're gonna 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 deadYou don't take nothing with youBut your soul - think!"
Made a lightning trip to Vienna,eating chocolate cake in a bag.The newspaper 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 goingThey're gonna 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 goingThey're gonna crucify me.The way things are goingThey're gonna crucify me.

Cold Turkey
Temperature's risingFever is highCan't see no futureCan't see no sky
My feet are so heavySo is my headI wish I was a babyI wish I was dead
Cold turkey has got me on the run
My body is achingGoose-pimple boneCan't see no bodyLeave me alone
My eyes are wide openCan't get to sleepOne thing I'm sure ofI'm in at the deep freeze
Cold turkey has got me on the runCold turkey has got me on the run
Thirty-six hoursRolling in painPraying to someoneFree me again
Oh I'll be a good boyPlease make me wellI promise you anythingGet me out of this hell
Cold turkey has got me on the runOh, oh, oh, oh

Jealous Guy
I was dreaming of the past.And my heart was beating fast,I began to lose control,I began to lose control,
I didn't mean to hurt you,I'm sorry that I mad you cry,I didn't want to hurt you,I'm just a jealous guy,
I was feeling insecure,You night not love me any more,
I was shivering inside,I was shivering inside,
I was trying to catch your eyes,Thought that you were trying to hide,I was swallowing my pain,I was swallowing my pain.

(Just Like) Starting Over
Our life together is so precious togetherWe have grown, we have grownAlthough our love is still specialLet's take a chance and fly away somewhere alone
It's been too long since we took the timeNo-one's to blame, I know time flies so quicklyBut when I see you darlingIt's like we both are falling in love againIt'll be just like starting over, starting over
Everyday we used to make it loveWhy can't we be making love nice and easyIt's time to spread our wings and flyDon't let another day go by my loveIt'll be just like starting over, starting over
Why don't we take off aloneTake a trip somewhere far, far awayWe'll be together all alone againLike we used to in the early daysWell, well, well darling
It's been too long since we took the timeNo-one's to blame, I know time flies so quicklyBut when I see you darlingIt's like we both are falling in love againIt'll be just like starting over, starting over
Our life together is so precious togetherWe have grown, we have grownAlthough our love is still specialLet's take a chance and fly away somewhere
Woman
Woman I can hardly express,My mixed emotion at my thoughtlessness,After all I'm forever in your debt,And woman I will try express,My inner feelings and thankfullness,For showing me the meaning of succsess,oooh well, well,oooh well, well,
Woman I know you understandThe little child inside the man,Please remember my life is in your hands,And woman hold me close to your heart,However, distant don't keep us apart,After all it is written in the stars,oooh well, well,oooh well, well,
Woman please let me explain,I never mean(t) to cause you sorrow or pain,So let me tell you again and again and again,I love you (yeah, yeah) now and forever,I love you (yeah, yeah) now and forever,I love you (yeah, yeah) now and forever,I love you (yeah, yeah)...

I Dont Know Why (demo)
I don't know why, was getting so good with us,I don't know why, was getting so good with us,I don't know why, was getting so good,Was getting so good with us.
I don't know why, was so good with us.
The room's so empty, the room's empty without you,My body's so empty, the world's so empty without you.
I don't know why,I don't know why,I don't know why,I don't know why, 'twas so good with us.
