JFK died in Dallas on this day November 22, 1963

I sometimes imagine what this world would have been like if John F Kennedy wasn't assassinated on that day in Dallas, Texas?

Roger McGuinn wrote these JFK related lyrics to the traditional song "He Was a Friend of Mine" on the day Kennedy was killed. It brings a tear to the eye nearly every time I hear the song.

HE WAS A FRIEND OF MINE

Traditional with additional lyrics by R. McGuinn

He was a friend of mine

He was a friend of mine

His killing had no purpose

No reason or rhyme

He was a friend of mine

He was in Dallas town

He was in Dallas town

From a six floor window

A gunner shot him down

He died in Dallas town

He never knew my name

He never knew my name

Though I never met him

I knew him just the same

He was a friend of mine

Leader of a nation

For such a precious time

He Was a friend of mine

Now listening to this song and writing this I believe I will now go and watch Oliver Stone's 'JFK' and maybe even pull out an old history textbook and read a bit on Kennedy.

BULLET

The Misfits

President’s bullet-ridden body in the street

Ride, johnny ride

Kennedy’s shattered head hits concrete

Ride, johnny ride

Johnny’s wife is floundering

Johnny’s wife is scared

Run, jackie run

Texas is an outrage when your husband is dead

Texas is an outrage when they pick up his head

Texas is the reason that the president’s dead

You gotta suck, suck, jackie suck

President’s bullet-ridden body in the street

Ride, johnny ride

Kennedy’s shattered head hits concrete

Ride, johnny ride

Texas is an outrage when your husband is dead

Texas is an outrage when they pick up his head

Texas is the reason that the president’s dead

You gotta suck, suck, jackie suck

Arise jackie o, jonathon of kennedy

Well, arise and be shot down

The dirt’s gonna be your dessert

My cum be your life source

And the only way to get it

Is to suck or fuck

Or be poor and devoid

And masturbate me, masturbate me

Then slurp it from your palm

Like a dry desert soaking up rain

Soaking up sun

Like a dry desert soaking up rain

Soaking up sun

I've always liked the theory that there's another Kennedy brother (aside from John, Robert, and Teddy), unknown to the masses, who's been steadily knocking off the other brothers (including a failed attempt at Teddy at Chappaquiddick); when they're all gone, he'll step into the spotlight and take whatever place he feels is right.

Aloha,

Brad
