Abraham, Martin & John
Has anybody here
Seen my old friend Abraham?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people
But the good they die young
I just looked around and he's gone
Has anybody here
Seen my old friend John?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people
But the good they die young
I just looked around and he's gone
Has anybody here
Seen my old friend Martin?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people
But it seems the good they die young
I just looked around and he's gone
Didn't you love the things they stood for?
Didn't they try to find some good for you and me?
Yes, we'll be free
Someday soon it's gonna be one day
Has anybody here
Seen my old friend Bobby?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
I thought I saw him walking up over the hill
With Abraham, Martin and John
I just looked around and they are gone
Goodnight folks
Seen my old friend Abraham?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people
But the good they die young
I just looked around and he's gone
Has anybody here
Seen my old friend John?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people
But the good they die young
I just looked around and he's gone
Has anybody here
Seen my old friend Martin?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people
But it seems the good they die young
I just looked around and he's gone
Didn't you love the things they stood for?
Didn't they try to find some good for you and me?
Yes, we'll be free
Someday soon it's gonna be one day
Has anybody here
Seen my old friend Bobby?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
I thought I saw him walking up over the hill
With Abraham, Martin and John
I just looked around and they are gone
Goodnight folks
