John Lennon Blues
Whoa, if John Lennon had a gun
Whoa, if John Lennon had a gun
He'd still be livin' singing "all you need is love"
Oh if he'd given peace a chance
Oh pulled a piece on each crazy fan
Shot that coward Caulfield in the back
Now the lone gunman is never alone
And a man without sin fills his pockets with stones
Woe that the world shoulda come to this
That we'd pray for a man to put the "fist" in "pacifist"
Whoa, if John Lennon had a gun
Whoa, if John Lennon had a gun
He'd still be livin' singing "all you need is love"
Woe if Gandhi pulled a knife
Woe if Reverend King took a life
If Jesus Christ had enough and just rained down fire
If John Lennon had a gun
If John Lennon had a gun
If John Lennon had a gun
Those Dakota steps would be stained with another man's blood
If John Lennon had a gun
Whoa, if John Lennon had a gun
He'd still be livin' singing "all you need is love"
Oh if he'd given peace a chance
Oh pulled a piece on each crazy fan
Shot that coward Caulfield in the back
Now the lone gunman is never alone
And a man without sin fills his pockets with stones
Woe that the world shoulda come to this
That we'd pray for a man to put the "fist" in "pacifist"
Whoa, if John Lennon had a gun
Whoa, if John Lennon had a gun
He'd still be livin' singing "all you need is love"
Woe if Gandhi pulled a knife
Woe if Reverend King took a life
If Jesus Christ had enough and just rained down fire
If John Lennon had a gun
If John Lennon had a gun
If John Lennon had a gun
Those Dakota steps would be stained with another man's blood
If John Lennon had a gun
