[Verse 1]
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 until 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
[Hook]
John
John
Le-le-le-le-le-le-le-lennon
John
Oh, John
Le-le-le-le-le-le-le-lennon
[Verse 2]
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 Write
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 Lennon's 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 than anybody'd ever seen
But the boys of Abbey Road, didn't want to Let It Be
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
He went to Live In New York City, but he lived on Borrowed Time
Living Life With The Lions, he was shot by a Jealous Guy
With a Revolver, but don't Ask Me Why
Life's little more than Hello, Goodbye
My, what a souvenir from their visit to America
Now he's going to Strawberry Fields Forever
Hardly Instant Karma
But calm your nerves
'Cause this Beautiful Boy's now as Free As A Bird
[Hook x2]
