Take this saleman for example
A selfless act of bravery
Now he's rewarded with free favors
Luck smiled at him and he smiled back
And then the rain
And then the rain
And then the rain
Beats down on me
Take this proud father for example
His son means the whole world to him
Take this junkie for example
Spoiled rotten since his childhood
And then the rain
And then the rain
And then the rain
And then the rain
And then the rain
And then the rain
And then the rain
And then the rain
And then the rain
Beats down on me
Abraham, Martin, And John
Anybody here seen my old friend Abraham?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed lotta people but it seems the good they die young
You know I just looked around and he's gone
Anybody here seen my old friend John?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed lotta people but it seems the good they die young
I just looked around and he's gone
Anybody here seen my old friend Martin?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed lotta people but it seems the good they die young
I just looked around and he's gone
Didn't you love the things that 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
Anybody here seen my old friend Bobby?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
I thought I saw him walkin' up over the hill
With Abraham, Martin, and John
