Lyrics

[Intro] Hey Kennedy, look out! Oh no! [Verse 1] Lee Harvey O. didn't have no daddy He never caught a break He never drove a Caddy Joined the Marines to learn a skill And that he did He learned how to kill [Chorus] At eleven miles an hour Such a deadly speed Eleven miles an hour At the time and place agreed They pulled that limousine Down Elm Street slow and clean Lead fell like the shower At eleven miles an hour [Verse 2] JFK went down to Dallas To cool some heels in the oil palace Unfriendly country But he was not afraid He would wave to the people From a passing motorcade [Chorus] At eleven miles an hour Such a deadly speed Eleven miles an hour At the time and place agreed They pulled that limousine Down Elm Street slow and clean Lead fell like the shower At eleven miles an hour [Verse 3] JFK told Khrushchev I'll leave Castro alone If you take away those missiles They're too damn close to home The CIA, the Cubans and the underworld bosses Decided that was it They had to cut their losses [Chorus] At eleven miles an hour Such a deadly speed Eleven miles an hour At the time and place agreed They pulled that limousine Down Elm Street slow and clean Lead fell like the shower At eleven miles an hour [Verse 4] Lee Harvey O. was made to order A radical nut A drifter and a boarder Earl Warren got a version out fast America was happy The patsy had been cast [Chorus] At eleven miles an hour Such a deadly speed Eleven miles an hour At the time and place agreed They pulled that limousine Down Elm Street slow and clean Lead fell like the shower At eleven miles an hour [Outro] Eleven miles an hour Eleven miles an hour
