Anybody here seen my old friend john
Can you tell me where he's gone.
[john f. kennedy shooting documentary]
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
[martin luther king speech]
Anybody here seen my old friend bobby
Can you tell me where he's gone.
[robert kennedy shooting documentary]
What the world needs now
Is love sweet love
No not for some
But for everyone.
