lyrics

I remember the day you told me John Lennon died
I rose up from my bed and I cried
That night as Judas waited by the front gate
And took our love to feed our hate

Christ you know it aint easy
You know how hard it can be
I still miss the big easy
And the way things used to be

I remember the day you told me Jerry had passed
I felt so sad but raised my glass
So may your cup be full and full once again
May your light shine to the end

Christ you know it aint easy
You know how hard it can be
I still miss the big easy
And those nights on Bourbon Street.
