Abraham, Martin & John Songtext
von Harry Belafonte

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
