Freddie's Dead Lyrics

Hey, yeah, hey, hey

Love, love, love, love, love

Yeah, yeah



Let the?said he'd send him home

But his hope was a rope but 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



Freddie's dead, huh

That's what I said



Everybody's misused him

Ripped him off and abused him

Another junkie plan

Pushing dope for the man

A terrible blow but that's how it goes

Freddie's on the corner now



And if you want to be a junkie, wow

Just remember

Freddie's dead



We're all built up with progress

But sometimes I must confess

You can deal with rockets and dreams

But reality, what does it mean ?



Ain't no damned thing said

'Cause Freddie's dead



Hey, yeah, hey, hey

Love, love, love, love, love

Yeah, yeah



Hey, yeah, hey, hey

Love, love, love, love, love

Yeah, yeah



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

I need a woman, child



Why can't we brothers protect one another ?

No one's serious and it make furious



Freddie's dead

Don't be misled, just think of Fred

Don't be misled, just think of Fred



Everybody's misused him

Ripped him off and abused him

Another junkie plan

Pushing dope for the man



Freddie's on the corner now

And if you want to be a junkie, wow



Freddie's dead

Freddy, Freddy, Freddy, Freddy

Freddie's dead, huh
