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 call 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 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're 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 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 going They're going to crucify me The way things are going They're going to crucify me

The Beatles

The Beatles

The Beatles were an English rock band formed in Liverpool in 1960. They became the most commercially successful and critically acclaimed act in the history of popular music. Their best-known lineup consisted of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. Rooted in skiffle and 1950s rock and roll, they later utilised several genres, ranging from pop ballads to psychedelic rock, often incorporating classical and other elements in innovative ways. In the early 1960s, their enormous popularity first emerged as "Beatlemania", but as their songwriting grew in sophistication, they came to be perceived by many fans and cultural observers as an embodiment of the ideals shared by the era's sociocultural revolutions. more »
