Anybody here seen my old friend Abraham
Can you tell me where he's gone?
Oh, he freed a lot of people, but the good, they die young
I just looked around and he's gone
Anybody here seen my old friend John
Can you tell me where he's gone?
Oh, he freed a lot of people, but the good, they die young
I just looked around and he's gone, gone, gone
Gone
Anybody here seen my old friend Martin
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed some people, but the good, they die young
I just looked around and he's gone, gone, gone
Gone
Now didn't you love the things they stood for?
Didn't they try to find some good for you and me?
And we'll be free
Someday soon, it's gonna be one day
Anybody here seen my old friend Bobby
Can you tell me, can you tell me where he's gone?
I thought I saw him walking way over the hill
With Abraham, Martin and John
Oh, I thought I saw him walking
Thought I heard them talking about 'We the people'
How to free the people
Which one stood tall, and now they're gone
Gone, gone, gone
Hallelu'
Can you tell me where he's gone?
Oh, he freed a lot of people, but the good, they die young
I just looked around and he's gone

Can you tell me where he's gone?
Oh, he freed a lot of people, but the good, they die young
I just looked around and he's gone, gone, gone

Which one stood tall, and now they're gone
Gone, gone, gone
