Jackie-o
A warm Dallas breeze floats through the air as a million hungry faces watch the king
And his parade on show for the world to see
Prime time American nineteen sixty three
And you were by his side, (side)
I still remember pictures that look on your face
The king had been forsaken and his country died in three seconds
That would last an eternity
Oh, Jackie-O I wonder what you could be thinking now your mixed up little head has been left alone
In a world so cold just a foot note in history book full of lies
You such a good girl keep smiling make 'em happy all is well in the land of make believe
As soon as the bullet left the chamber on that calm November day you knew the world would never be the same
The killer in us all, (all)
Just victims of ourselves looking for the perfect death trigger happy patriots running from ourselves you knew it would never be this way again
Jackie-O I wonder what your thinking now
You've been left here all on your own
In this land, a world of make believe you get back what was taken from you and go moving on
Jackie-O I wonder what your thinking
Now your all alone in your mixed up world
Such a good little girl, fairytale
Wishing on a star that'll never shine
And his parade on show for the world to see
Prime time American nineteen sixty three
And you were by his side, (side)
I still remember pictures that look on your face
The king had been forsaken and his country died in three seconds
That would last an eternity
Oh, Jackie-O I wonder what you could be thinking now your mixed up little head has been left alone
In a world so cold just a foot note in history book full of lies
You such a good girl keep smiling make 'em happy all is well in the land of make believe
As soon as the bullet left the chamber on that calm November day you knew the world would never be the same
The killer in us all, (all)
Just victims of ourselves looking for the perfect death trigger happy patriots running from ourselves you knew it would never be this way again
Jackie-O I wonder what your thinking now
You've been left here all on your own
In this land, a world of make believe you get back what was taken from you and go moving on
Jackie-O I wonder what your thinking
Now your all alone in your mixed up world
Such a good little girl, fairytale
Wishing on a star that'll never shine
