The Late Great Johnny Ace (Remastered Album Version) - Paul Simon[00:00:01]

I was reading a magazine[00:00:15]

And thinking of a rock and roll song[00:00:18]

The year was 1954[00:00:21]

And I hadh't been playing that long[00:00:25]

When a man came on the radio[00:00:28]

And this is what he said[00:00:33]

He said I hate to break it[00:00:38]

To his fans[00:00:40]

But Johnny Ace is dead[00:00:42]

Well I really wasn't[00:00:52]

Such a Johnny Ace fan[00:00:53]

But I felt bad all the same[00:00:56]

So I sent away for his photograph[00:00:58]

And I waited till it came[00:01:02]

It came all the way from Texas[00:01:05]

With a sad and simple face[00:01:10]

And they signed it on the bottom[00:01:15]

From the Late Great Johnny Ace[00:01:19]

It was the year of The Beatles[00:01:48]

It was the year of The Stones[00:01:50]

It was 1964[00:01:53]

I was living in London[00:02:00]

With the girl from the summer before[00:02:03]

It was the year of The Beatles[00:02:11]

It was the year of The Stones[00:02:14]

A year after J F K [00:02:16]

We were staying up all night[00:02:23]

And giving the days away[00:02:26]

And the music was flowing[00:02:35]

Amazing[00:02:39]

And blowing my way[00:02:40]

On a cold December evening[00:02:57]

I was walking through the Christmas tide[00:03:00]

When a stranger came up and asked me[00:03:04]

If I'd heard John Lennon had died[00:03:07]

And the two of us[00:03:10]

Went to this bar[00:03:12]

And we stayed to close the place[00:03:15]

And every song we played[00:03:21]

Was for The Late Great Johnny Ace[00:03:23]
