Song | He Was My Brother |
Artist | Simon |
Album | The Essential Simon & Garfunkel |
He was my brother | |
Five years older than | |
I He was my brother | |
Twenty-three years old the day he died | |
Freedom rider | |
They cursed my brother to his face | |
Go home outsider | |
This town's gonna be your buryin' place | |
He was singin' on his knees | |
An angry mob trailed along | |
They shot my brother dead | |
Because he hated what was wrong | |
He was my brother | |
Tears can't bring him back to me | |
He, he was my brother | |
And he died so his brothers could be free | |
He died so his brothers could be free |
