[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 till 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 Lelelelelelelelennon John Oh, john Lelelelelelelelennon [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 right 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,whod compare to john lennons mother? Shes a woman named yoko Shes 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 then anybodyd ever seen But the boys at abbey road,didnt 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 lines,he was shot by a jealous guy With a revolver,but dont ask me why Lifes little more then Hello, goodbye My, what a souvenir from their visit to america Now hes going to strawberry fields forever Hardly instant karma, but Calm your nerves Cause this beautiful boys now as free as a bird [Hook x2]
