| Standing in the dock at Southampton |
Trying to get to Holland or France
The man in the mack said
You gotta go back
You know they didn't even give us a chance
| A |
| Christ you know it ain’t | easy |
| E |
| You know how hard it can | be |
| B7 |
| The way things are | going |
| E |
| They’re gonna crucify | me |
| E |
| Finally made the plane into Paris |
Honeymooning down by the Seine
Peter Brown called to say
You can make it OK
You can get married in Gibraltar near Spain
| A |
| Christ you know it ain’t | easy |
| E |
| You know how hard it can | be |
| B7 |
| The way things are | going |
| E |
| They’re gonna crucify | me |
| E |
| Drove from | Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton |
Talking in our beds for a week
The newspeople said say what you're doing in bed
I said we're only trying to get us some peace
| A |
| Christ you know it ain’t | easy |
| E |
| You know how hard it can | be |
| B7 |
| The way things are | going |
| E |
| They’re gonna crucify | me |
| A |
| 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
| B7 |
| You | don’t take nothing with you but your soul, think! |
| E |
| 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
| A |
| Christ you know it ain’t | easy |
| E |
| You know how hard it can | be |
| B7 |
| The way things are | going |
| E |
| They’re gonna crucify | me |
| E |
| Caught the early plane back to London |
Fifty acorns tied in a sack
The men from the press say we wish you success
It's good to have the both of you back
| A |
| Christ you know it ain’t | easy |
| E |
| You know how hard it can | be |
| B7 |
| The way things are | going |
| E |
| They’re gonna crucify | me |
| B7 |
| The way things are | going |
| E |
| They’re gonna crucify | me |
