Текст песни Not John (Loudon Wainwright III) с переводом

The limousine was waiting

Outside the studio

In stepped poor John Lennon

And his wife Yoko

Ono — Not John

On up 44th Street

Left at 8th avenue

Up to the Dakota

A man waits there for you

Oh no — Yes John

The man’s name is Chapman

Comes from Honolulu

He really loved your music John

Got a Japanese wife too

Oh no — poor Sean

Five bullets in your body

That’s what the experts say

They say you signed an autograph

For him on that very day

Oh no — not John

There was a vigil at the Roosevelt

At the Dakota too

Silence in Central Park

They had a riot in Liverpool

Now Chapman is in the jailhouse

What’s he doing there?

He went and he shot John Lennon

All you heroes best beware

Oh no — not John

The limousine was waiting

Outside the studio

In stepped poor John Lennon

And his wife Yoko

Ono — not John
