The assassination of President John F. Kennedy
To many this has always been an unsolved Mystery
JFK was shot in Dallas, Texas on the 22 of November
We are still mourning him, and will always remember
Abraham Zapruder had no idea what he'd be filming
Would be under scrutiny by the public for viewing
Some said the shots came from the grassy knoll
Where they came from no one will ever know
Jackie Kennedy in terrible shock, crawled out onto the limousine
She could not recall doing this, when the Secret Service Intervened
Walter Cronkite reported this shocking news to us in tears
And in all his years of work, he will forever be revered
Jackie in her blood stained suit stood beside Lyndon B. Johnson
When he took the oath of office to be next president of our nation
Oswald told the world that he was a patsy
Jack Ruby shooting him on TV was ghastly
Life Magazine chronicled the events
Filling each page with all JFK contents
To this day there still are reenactments and movies
And everyone like me still feels this is newsworthy
