My Mama went to Raon to have one of our videoke players fixed. Yes, we have more than one, in case one will not work we have a back-up.. he he. Raon is a place where the noise is. That's where we can buy these videoke machines, loud speakers etc.
She told me this story, that after the player was fixed, she is really impressed by the quality speakers they used to test it. She said that she really liked the tuneful sound. Then, she said that she's been thinking a lot about the song they have played while testing it, and all she can recall is "Saving up your money for a rainy day..." no other lines just that. She said she was shy to ask the title coz it sounds popular and yet she doesn't know it. Anyway, so I searched, and searched some more, I really can't find it.. you know it ain't easy, until she said another line that she recalled "They're gonna crucify me". Yay! finally, I found it..

The Ballad of John and Yoko, another song where you can't find the title in the lyrics and you can say oh yeah I heard that song before, of course! because it's The Beatles! 😄😆
The way things are going 🎵 I'm gonna be expecting this song to be played a lot in the next mornings and on Saturday videoke day this song's done for ha ha!
The Ballad of John and Yoko
The Beatles
Standing in the dock at Southampton
Trying to get to Holland or France
The man in the mac said
You've got to go back
You know they didn't even give us a chance
Christ you know it ain't easy
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me
Finally made the plane into Paris
Honeymooning down by the Seine
Peter Brown call to say
You can make it O.K.
You can get married in Gibraltar near Spain
Christ you know it ain't easy
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me
Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton
Talking in our beds for a week
The newspapers said
Say what're you doing in bed
I said we're only trying to get us some peace
Christ you know it ain't easy
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me
Saving up your money for a rainy day
Giving all your clothes to charity
Last night the wife said
Oh boy when you're dead
You don't take nothing with you but your soul, think
Made a lightning trip to Vienna
Eating chocolate cake in a bag
The newspapers said
She's gone to his head
They look just like two gurus in drag
Christ you know it ain't easy
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me
Caught the early plane back to London
Fifty acorns tied in a sack
The men from the press
Said we wish you success
It's good to have the both of you back
Christ you know it ain't easy
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me
Songwriters: John Lennon / Paul Mccartney
