Joan Baez - Sgt. Pepper's Band lyrics
Your rating:
(Words and Music by Joan Baez) I never knew you meant that much to me Why did I pour a candle when you died Find a picture of you walking in Central Park With the iron woman by your side That candle burned for twenty days Most of my best friends came to mourn And talk about the good ole days Before my friends and I were born Now I think I understand That it was Sgt. Pepper's band That put the sixties into song Where have all the heroes gone? Lucy in the sky with the lads from Liverpool Drop some acid, meet the Queen Coming out of both eyes of the hurricane You sang your music sweet and clean You may not want my poetry I surely do not want your fame You rose over the dawn of my early history I'll pay you tribute all the same Now I think I understand That it was Sgt. Pepper's band That put the sixties into song Where have all the heroes gone? Where have they gone? Where have they gone? Where have all the heroes gone? Where have all the heroes gone? It was a diamond studded hard day's night They say everyone was there I must have heard you from my mother's arms And I must have thought somebody cared I live in the age of cosmic maniacs One of them put a bullet in your side New York City, 1980 The day the sixties finally died Now I know I understand That it was Sgt. Pepper's band That put the sixties into song Where have all the heroes gone? Where have they gone? Where have they gone? Where have all the heroes gone? Where have all the heroes gone?
