Good evening

listeners,
and all ships at sea,
from the road of Bombay
to the Caspian Sea,
And the World Service of the BBC
Tuning in a short wave and ship to shore
Drink a dram for the king of rock and roll

John Peel, John Peel
I went to his farm just for a spell
D
Came in on the arm of Laura Cantrell
Am
Had every record ever sent him,
even the ones he never played
He said, there's a life there
living in the grooves
And I can feel him
when I'm walking in the room
John Peel, John Peel
It's time to fold the tent,
F
Tell your majesty it's over,

John Peel said
He sang, I got stripes,
a legend in my time
He said, this is a great night of my life
He played Lonnie Donegan's Frankie
Loud enough to cross the sea
He said, I saw Eddie Cocker
when I was just fifteen
Might have been the coolest thing
that I'm ever gonna see.

John Peel sailed on.
I spent time in Dallas
and he told a tall tale
I met John and Jackie
on the campaign trail
And he was there in the room
when Oswald was led away
Newsreel footage taken at the scene,
Oswald and Peel
11 -24 -63, John Peel
John Peel
Later that night,
I played a song I wrote
Just hangin' in the corner,
quiet and slow
I didn't think he was listenin',
it was time to go
The very next week
he played me on his show
Oh, John Peel, John Peel
It's time to fold the tent,
F
Tell your majesty it's over,
