Abraham, Martin, and John / Precious Memories Songtext
von Kenny Rogers

Has anybody here seen my old friend Abraham?
Can you tell me where he′s gone?
He freed a lotta people
But the good they say die young
And I just looked around, and he was gone

Has anybody here seen my old friend John?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lotta people
But the good they say die young
And 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 lotta people
But the good the say die young
And 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?
So we'll be free
Someday soon there′s gonna be a new 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

Precious memories
How they linger
How they ever flood my soul
In the stillness of the midnight
Precious sacred scenes unfold
