Transcription of song:
“Who Killed John Kennedy?”

Michael Gillotti, 1992 (04:41)

Tell me please,

Who killed John Kennedy?

Do you want me to believe it was just one man?

Tell me now,

Because I can’t understand how all those shots were fired by one man.

I saw a film of that Dallas street,

And all along the way, people gathered round.

And what they saw,

I heard many of them repeat,

That a gun was fired from behind a picket fence.

Earl Warren, tell me where’s your evidence?

I knew you’d rather we take your word.

Tell me why?

Tell me why

So many questions still remain?

Why so many voices were left unheard.

Tell me please,

Who were Jack Ruby’s friends?

Do you want me to believe he slept alone?

Tell me how?

Tell me how

He got into the basement with a gun?

And where all the Dallas policemen have their fun.

Oh, it pains me so

To think of gunshots now

And to see a man

I love fall to his death.

But something tells me,

Something tells me that Lee Oswald would like to say

That a country by the people was lost that day.

Tell me please,

Tell me please,

Who killed John, Robert, Martin Luther King?

Do you want me to believe it was just one man?

They covered up their tracks,

Covered up their tracks,

But I know somehow, someday, that the men who shot them down will have to pay.

Yes, the men who shot them down will have to pay.

Does not have a cassette case.
