Freddie's Dead - Curtis Mayfield
Hey hey
Love love
Yeah yeah
Uh huh
Freddie's dead
That's what I said
Let the man rap a plan 'said he'd send him home
But his hope was a rope and he should have known
It's hard to understand there was love in this man
I'm sure all would agree that his misery
Was his woman and things
Now Freddie's dead
That's what I said
Everybody's misused him ripped him off and abused him
Another junkie playin' pushin' d**e for the man
A terrible blow but that's how it go
Freddie's on the corner now if you wanna be a junkie wow
Remember Freddie's dead
We're all built up with progress
But sometimes I must confess
We can deal with rockets and dreams
But reality what does it mean ain't nothing said
'Cause Freddie's dead
Hey hey
Love love
Hey hey
Yeah yeah
Huh huh
Love love
Yeah yeah
Huh huh
Yeah yeah
Freddie's dead
All I want is some peace of mind
With a little love I'm trying to find
This could be such a beautiful world with a wonderful girl
Why I need a woman child don't wanna be like Freddie now
'Cause Freddie's dead
Hey hey
Yeah yeah
If you don't try
You're gonna die
Why can't we brothers
Protect one another
No one's serious
And it makes me furious
Don't be misled
Just think of freed
Everybody's misused him
Ripped him up and abused him
Another junkie plan
Pushin' d**e for the man
A Freddie's on the corner now
If you wanna be a junkie why
Remember Freddie's dead
Ha ha ha ha ha
Freddie's dead
Hey hey
Ha ha
Love love
Ha ha
Ooh ooh
Hey hey
Love love
Hey hey
