Doctor, doctor, tell me the time of day | |
Another bottle's empty | |
Another penny spent | |
He turned around and he slowly walked away | |
They shot him in the back and down he went | |
Shine your light, | |
Move it on, | |
You burned so bright, | |
Roll on John | |
From the Liverpool docks to the red light Hamburg streets | |
Down in the quarry with the Quarrymen. | |
Playing to the big crowds | |
Playing to the cheap seats | |
Another day in your life on your way to your journey’s end | |
Shine your light, | |
Move it on, | |
You burned so bright, | |
Roll on John | |
Sailing through the trade winds bound for the sun | |
Rags on your back just like any other slave | |
They tied your hands and they clamped your mouth | |
Wasn’t no way out of that deep dark cave | |
Shine your light, | |
Move it on, | |
You burned so bright, | |
Roll on John | |
I heard the news today, oh boy | |
They hauled your ship up on the shore | |
Now the city’s gone dark | |
There is no more joy | |
They tore the heart right out and cut it to the core | |
Shine your light, | |
Move it on, | |
You burned so bright, | |
Roll on John | |
Put on your bags and get ‘em packed | |
Leave right now you won’t be far from wrong | |
The sooner you go, the quicker you’ll be back | |
You've been cooped up on an island far too long | |
Shine your light, | |
Move it on, | |
You burned so bright, | |
Roll on John | |
Slow down you’re moving way too fast | |
Come together right now over me | |
Your bones are weary you’re about to breathe your last | |
Lord, you know how hard that it can be | |
Shine your light, | |
Move it on, | |
You burned so bright, | |
Roll on John | |
Roll on John, roll through the rain and snow | |
Take the right hand road and go where the buffalo roam | |
They’ll trap you in an ambush before you know | |
Too late now to sail back home | |
Shine your light, | |
Move it on, | |
You burned so bright, | |
Roll on John | |
Tiger, Tiger burning bright | |
I pray the lord my soul to keep | |
In the forest of the night | |
Cover him over and let him sleep | |
Shine your light, | |
Move it on, | |
You burned so bright, | |
Roll on John |
Doctor, doctor, tell me the time of day | |
Another bottle' s empty | |

Shine your light, | |
Move it on, | |
