Lee Harvey Lyrics by Asylum Street Spankers

Spanks for the Memories

0

[Intro]
Lee Harvey was a friend of mine
[Verse 1]
I was born in Dallas
In nineteen fifty two
Lee Harvey moved across the street
On Beckley Avenue
He used to throw the ball to me
When I was just a kid
They say he shot the president
But I don't think he did
[Chorus]
And Lee Harvey was a friend of mine
He used to take me fishing all the time
He used to throw the ball to me
When I was just a kid
They say he shot the president
But I don't think he did
[Verse 2]
Well, I seen that picture of him
With the pamphlets and a gun
The shadows pointed every which way
But there's only just one sun
Someone faked that photo
It's locked 'way and hid
They say he shot the president
But I don't think he did
[Chorus]
And Lee Harvey was a friend of mine
He used to take me fishing all the time
He used to throw the ball to me
When I was just a kid
They say he shot the president
But I don't think he did
[Bridge]
I seen it all on TV
Lee Harvey got gunned down
Murdered by Jack Ruby
The biggest sleaze in town
He stuck that gun right in his ribs
And said, "here's lookin' at you, kid,"
Ruby shot Lee Harvey
TV proved he did
[Chorus]
And Lee Harvey was a friend of mine (A very good friend!)
He used to take me fishing all the time
He used to throw the ball to me
When I was just a kid
[Outro]
Well, they say he shot the president
(Back, and to the left)
(Back, and to the left)
(Back, and to the left)
But I don't think he did
