Dan Bull - John Lennon lyrics

Once upon a time there was
A working class hero
Who wanted to give power to the people so
He asked us to imagine a world of peace
Love and truth to give peace a chance
Do you want to know a secret from me to you?
All you need is love so love me do
And whether the music was acoustic
Or rock and roll
He walked the long and winding road 'till
He wore out his rubber sole
With his old brown shoe
He broke walls and bridges down
Made us come together
'Caused us all to twist and shout
He was the one to tell us what goes on
Number nine, number nine revolution

John john
Le le le le le le le lennon john
Oh, john le le le le le le le lennon

He was a paperback writer
As well as pen and verse
His best known publication was a
Spaniard in the works and in his own right
He would write and write and write
Cause you should do whatever gets
You through the night
Every man has a woman who loves
Him more than any other but for this boy
Who'd compare to john lennons mother?
She's a woman named yoko she's something new
So hold on john, because she loves you
This is real love no more cover versions
Their love was just like starting over
Two virgins
He was happier then anybody'd ever seen
But the boys at abbey road
Didn't want to let it be


He went to live in new york city
But he lived on borrowed time
Living life with the lines
He was shot by a jealous guy
With a revolver, but don't ask me why
Life's little more then: Hello, goodbye
My, what a souvenir from
Their visit to America
Now hes going to strawberry fields forever
Hardly instant karma, but calm your nerves
Cause this beautiful boy's now as
Free as a bird
