Sally And Billy
John Lennon

Sally was proud and she ran with the crowd
Independent and beautiful
Oh how beautiful!
Spent all her days and most of the day
Drinking coffee and reading plays
Oh how beautiful!

Oh now Sally, Sally now don't you cry
Oh how she cried, wiping the tears from her eyes
Heart running dry
She's never satisfied

Billy's a man and he sings with a band
On the road doin´ one night stand, oh what a man
Spends all his time playing games with his mind
Chasing women and drinking wine, helluva lucky guy

Oh now Billy, Billy now don't you cry
Oh how he cried, wiping the tears from his eyes
Heart running dry, he's never satisfied

Too late now
To make it up somehow
Too late now
They missed the boat somehow

Sally and Billy are over the hill
Neither one of them understands, I guess they never will
Both of them dreaming of what might have been
Pray that Jesus will intervene, Oh dear Lord

Too late now to make it up somehow
Too late now they missed the boat somehow

Sally and Billy don't cry
Billy and Sally don't cry
Sally and Billy don't cry
Sally and Billy don't cry
Sally and Billy don't cry
