Anybody here seen my old friend Abraham,
Can you tell me where he's gone?
Oh, he freed a lotta people, but the good they die young
I just looked around and he's gone, gone.

Anybody here seen my old friend John,
Can you tell me where he's gone?, ohhh
He freed a lotta 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.

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?, ah ha ahah
Thought I saw him walkin' way over the hill
With Abraham Martin and John, oh, oh, oh, oh
Thought I saw him walking
Thought I heard them talking
About we the people
How to free the people
Each one stood tall
And now they are gone, gone, gone
Hallelujah
