Freddie's Dead

In the style of

Curtis Mayfield

Lyrics

hey hey
love love
yeah yeah
ah ah ha ah ah

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've known

everybody's
misused him
ripped him off
and abused him
another junkie plan
pushin' dope
for the man

a terrible blow
but that's how it goes
a-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 nothin' said
'cause freddie's dead

huh uh huh uh uh
love love
ha ah ha ah ah
love love

yeah yeah
ha ah ha ah ah
yeah yeah
freddie's dead

all i want
is some peace of mind
with a little love
i'm tryin' to find

this could be
such a
beautiful world
with a
wonderful girl
ooh i need a
woman child

don't wanna be
like freddie now
because
freddie's dead

everybody's
misused him
ripped him off
and abused him
another junkie plan

pushin' dope
for the man
a-freddie's on
the corner now
if you wanna be
a junkie wow
remember
freddie's dead

ha ah ha ah
ha ha ha
freddie's dead

hey hey
ha ha ah ah
love love
ha ah ha ah ah
ooh ooh
