Freddie's Dead
Lyricist：Curtis Mayfield
Freddie's dead, that's what I said
He let the man rap a plan, said he'd see him home
But his hope was a rope and he should've 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 up and abused him
Another junkie plan, pushin' dope 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
Everybody's misused him, ripped him up and abused him
Another junkie plan, pushin' dope for the man
Freddie's on the corner now, if you wanna be a junkie, wow
Remember, Freddie's dead
Hey, hey, mama, mama
Ooh, we, ooh, we, yeah, yeah, ooh, yeah
Wah wah, wah wah, ta ta, ta ta
Hey, no, oh, no, don't go, don't go
Mama, mama, 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?
I don't wanna be like Freddie now 'cause Freddie's dead
Everybody's misused him, ripped him up and abused him
Another junkie plan, pushin' dope for the man
Freddie's on the corner now
If you wanna be a junkie, you don't wanna be a junkie
You don't have to be a junkie, you don't wanna be a junkie
Remember, Freddie's dead
Hey, hey, mama, mama
Wah wah, wah wah, ta ta, ta ta
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 Fred
Everybody's misused him, ripped him up and abused him
Another junkie plan, pushin' dope for the man
Freddie's on the corner now if you wanna be a junkie, wow
Remember, Freddie's dead
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
Love, love, love, love, love
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
No, no, Freddie
