[ar:Beatles]
[00:03.00]Standing in the dock at Southampton,
[00:06.00]Trying to get to Holland or France.
[00:10.00]The man in the mac said, You ve got to turn back.
[00:13.00]You know they didn t even give us a chance.
[00:15.00]Christ you know it ain t easy,
[00:19.00]You know how hard it can be.
[00:24.00]The way things are going
[00:26.00]They re going to crucify me.
[00:31.00]Finally made the plane into Paris,
[00:35.00]Honey mooning down by the Seine.
[00:38.00]Peter Brown called to say,
[00:40.00]You can make it O.K.,
[00:41.00]You can get married in Gibraltar, near Spain.
[00:44.00]Christ you know it ain t easy,
[00:47.00]You know how hard it can be.
[00:52.00]The way things are going
[00:55.00]They re going to crucify me.
[00:59.00]Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton,
[01:03.00]Talking in our beds for a week.
[01:06.00]The newspapers said, Say what you doing in bed?
[01:10.00]I said, We re only trying to get us some peace.
[01:12.00]Christ you know it ain t easy,
[01:16.00]You know how hard it can be.
[01:20.00]The way things are going
[01:23.00]They re going to crucify me.
[01:28.00]Saving up your money for a rainy day,
[01:31.00]Giving all your clothes to charity.
[01:35.00]Last night the wife said,
[01:37.00]Oh boy, when you re dead
[01:39.00]You don t take nothing with you
[01:40.00]But your soul - think!
[01:42.00]Made a lightning trip to Vienna,
[01:47.00]eating chocolate cake in a bag.
[01:50.00]The newspapers said, She s gone to his head,
[01:53.00]They look just like two gurus in drag.
[01:56.00]Christ you know it ain t easy,
[01:59.00]You know how hard it can be.
[02:04.00]The way things are going
[02:06.00]They re going to crucify me.
[02:11.00]Caught an early plane back to London.
[02:15.00]Fifty acorns tied in a sack.
[02:18.00]The men from the press said, We wish you success,
[02:22.00]It s good to have the both of you back.
[02:24.00]Christ you know it ain t easy,
[02:27.00]You know how hard it can be.
[02:32.00]The way things are going
[02:35.00]They re going to crucify me.
[02:39.00]The way things are going
[02:42.00]They re going to crucify me.
[02:42.00]They re going to crucify me.
[02:43.00]
