lirik lagu honorable bob peters - a sunny day in dallas, pt. 1

[intro, spoken]
on november the 22nd, nineteen hundred and sixty~three
john fitzgerald kennedy went to texas
the state of the alamo, of sam houston, the lone star state
he went there to talk of liberty, of freedom, and of the greatness of man
while there he was shot in the back, a victim of the hatred, and prejudice of man
this song is a tribute to john fitzgerald kennedy, his wife and our nation

[verse 1, sung]
the president flew to texas, with his lady by his side
to make a speech and mend a fence and take a little ride
the airport was so crowded, and the hotel lobby too
the president moved among his friends and jackie shook hands too

[verse 2]
at breakfast there was laughter, and jackie seemed so gay
as they climbed into their limousine and started on their way
it was a sunny day in dallas, the rain had gone away
and a mighty was crowd was waiting to shout a large hooray

[verse 3]
they came around the corner and the president raised his hand
while in an upstairs window lee oswald took his stand
they say that jack was smiling, as the bullet struck his back
and the people there can ne’er forget that friday oh so black
[verse 4]
the rushed him to the doctor with his head on jackie’s knee
but the rifle shots had done their work, no more his face we’ll see
while the life was slowly draining from this great and n0ble man
she took the ring from her finger and placed it on his hand

[chorus 1]
it was a sunny day in dallas, the rain had gone away
and a mighty crowd was waiting to shout a large hooray

[verse 5, spoken]
oh the drums beat slow and the horses go as she follows in the van
and before the eyes of the nation, they laid him in the ground
they took the flag from the coffin and folded it so neat
as the widow stood by the casket, two children at her feet

[chorus 2, sung]
she raised the veil above her head and gazed at heaven’s gate
oh lord forgive lee oswald for his anger and his hate

[verse 6]
on a sacred spot in arlington by the crosses row on row
they lit a flame to proclaim again freedom’s cherished glow
the message rang out loud and clear like the stars up in the sky
we’ll stand as one for liberty as we did in days gone by
[verse 7]
the kings passed by and the tears they fly as the mournful day sped on
while princes wept and the evil slept, the union’s work went on
it was a sunny day in dallas, the rain had gone away
the day they shot our president that sad november day
