Lincoln Limousine

[Bengt]

Hi,

(this has also been posted in rec.music.rock-pop-r+b.1960s)

I'm looking for the lyrics to "Lincoln Limousine", written(?) and recorded
by Jerry Lee Lewis. I think the song is about the murder of JFK, so it must be
made after november 1963. If anyone can help me or give me a "lead" to
where I can look for it, I would be very glad.

According to what I have "Lincoln Limousine" (that indeed deals with
the JFK assassination) was recorded at Sun Studios in Memphis January
5 1966.

it was relesed a little later in that year on the "Memphis Beat" album
---Smash SRS 67079.

A Google search shiould turn up a site that has these lyrics??

Thanks Roger!

I've been looking "everywhere" for the lyrics without finding them .....
Anyway, the "solution" was that our drummer found the song with the "help"
of Kazaa Lite and than wrote the lyrics from the song.

Lincoln limousine

Well they shot him in the back seat of a Lincoln limousine
Was a great,great leader by the name of Kennedy
He fought for right and freedom tried to keep this nation clean
But they shot him in the backseat of a Lincoln limousine

And he had ten million dollars, had the world right in his hand
but a twenty dollar rifle cut the life of this great man
he had a lovely wife and two children seldom seen
but they shot him in the backseat of a Lincoln limousine

well they shot him out in texas where the longhorn cattle roam
oh lord it would have been better if he had stayed at home
this nation is a great place but one fact still remains
that they shot a president in the backseat of a limousine

Well they shot him in the back seat of a Lincoln limousine
Was a great,great leader by the name of Kennedy
He fought for right and freedom tried to keep this nation clean
But they shot him in the backseat of a Lincoln limousine

And this man he did not die on a far and distant shore
He died at dallas texas a place not known for war
This country is supposed to be the land of the brave and free
But they shot him in the backseat of a Lincoln limousine

And the moral of the story that it really has no end
It goes to show you never know who's your enemy or your friend

Well they shot him in the back seat of a Lincoln limousine
Was a great,great leader by the name of Kennedy
He fought for right and freedom tried to keep this nation clean
But they shot him in the backseat of that Lincoln limousine
