Lyrics

[Verse 1] Has anybody here seen my old friend Abraham? Can you tell me where he's gone? Yeah, yeah He freed a lotta people, but the good, they die young 'Cause I looked around one day and man was gone What a shame, he was gone Listen [Verse 2] Anybody here seen my old friend Martin? Can you tell me where the man gone? Uh-huh, now, now, now He freed a lotta people but it seems the good die young I turned my head one day, thе man was gone Lord, he's gone [Bridge] Didn't you lovе the things they stood for? Didn't they try to find some good for you and me? And we'll be free Some day soon, it's gonna be one day [Verse 3] Has anybody here seen my old friend John? Ooh, can you tell me where he's gone? Hi-dee-hi-dee-hi-dee-hi-dee He freed a lotta people, hm, but it seems the good die young 'Cause I turned around one day and the man was gone Just like that, he was gone [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] 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 Some day soon, it's gonna be one day [Outro] Has anybody here seen my old friend Bobby? Can you tell me where he's gone? Oh, oh, I thought I saw him walking, huh, up over the hill With old man Abraham (Abraham) And I believe I saw Martin (Martin) And his brother, John
