 Oh, the day John Kennedy died
 Oh, the day John Kennedy died
 ♪
 I remember where I was that day, I was upstate in a bar
 The team from the university was playing football on TV
 ♪
 Then the screen went dead and the announcer said,
 "There's been a tragedy
 There's are unconfirmed reports the president's been shot
 and he may be dead or dying."
 ♪
 Talking stopped, someone shouted, "What!?"
 I ran out to the street
 People were gathered everywhere saying,
 did you hear what they said on TV
 And then a guy in a Porsche with his radio hit his horn
 and told us the news
 He said, "The president's dead, he was shot twice in the head
 in Dallas, and they don't know by whom."

 shot him in the face
