A crowded main street the scene was set
They check out the view, turn the radio on
Open the case, assemble the gun
Laid out the ready, for the president's run

The world was shocked that fateful day
A young man's life was blown away, away
In Dallas 1 PM, 1 PM

White hot lead in the back of the head
Screaming confusion, shots rip the air
Cadillac racing, cops on the run
They couldn't believe the President's hit

The shooting is done, assassins run
Is he dead?, no-one will say
Around the world the news was flashed
We sat and watched your tragic history

The world was shocked that fateful day
A young man's life was blown away, away
In Dallas 1 PM, 1 PM

The world was shocked
In Dallas 1 PM
We sat and watched
Your tragic history

The world was shocked
In Dallas 1 PM
