First verse 
Standing in the dock of 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 
You know it ain't easy, you know how hard it can be. 
The way things are going, they're gonna crucify me. 

Second Verse 

Finally made the plane in to Paris, honeymooning down by the Seine. 
Peter Brown called to say "you can make it O.K. You can get married in Gibraltar near Spain" 
You know it ain't easy, you know how hard it can be, 
The way things are going, they're gonna crucify me. 

Saving up your money for a rainy day, giving all you clothes to charity. 
Last night the wife said, Oh boy, when you're dead you don't take nothing with you but your soul. 

Third Verse 
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" 
You know it ain't easy, you know how hard it can be, 
the way things are going, they're gonna crucify me.
