Subject: RE: songs on life, times & assassination of JFK
Not sure if you're collecting anything other than folk songs Art but here is the Saxon one I mentioned way back up the thread there somwhere.

Dallas 1 pm
Down on main street the scene was set
They check out the fuel turn the radio on
Open the gates, assemble the gun
Wait at the ready, for the president's run

The world was shocked that fateful day (*)
A young man's life was blown away, away
Dallas 1 p.m., 1 p.m.

Right and left in the back of the head
Screaming confusion, shots rip the air
Cadillac racing, cops on the run
They couldn't believe the president's hit

The shooting stunned as I seemed to run
Is he dead, no-one will say
Around the world the news was flashed
We sat and watched your tragic history

The world was shocked that fateful day (*)
A young man's life was blown away, away
Dallas 1 p.m., 1 p.m.

The world was shocked
In Dallas 1 p.m.
We sat and watched
Tragic history

The world was shocked
In Dallas 1 p.m.
