Lyric President Kennedy

(Sleepy John Estes)

Late one Friday evening everybody was sad
We lost the best president we ever had
But he s gone home, gone back home
He s staying away too long

Rode from town to town holdin up for our rights
Some low down rascal took the President s life
But he s gone home, gone back home
He s staying away too long

Mrs. Kennedy got a mansion on the Island, stayed 9 months, all she d be
She have another mansion, soon as she reach Washington, D.C.
But he s gone home, gone back home
He s staying away too long

Everybody votes, they don t know what s goin on
If Goldwater get it, we won t have no home
But he s gone home, gone back home
He s staying away too long

While horses and cars all in a row
I think Mr. Kennedy have a right to this long white robe
But he s gone home, gone back home
He s staying away too long
