Hi! Can someone give me some websites where there's a video performance on the song << Abraham, Martin and John>>? Best if it's one that has the lyrics on the same page as the video because I'm using it to show it to my class so that they can understand the song well. And if possible, an introduction of the song too. Thanks! Answer soon!

Hello,
Here is one site that will help with the teaching aspect:

And here is a link to hear the audio of the song:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Billboard-Top-Pop-Hits-1968/dp/B0000033IZ
I didn't find a video...yet. I will keep looking.
But I hope this helped!! :)

This is a better audio of the song:

And here's the Lyrics:

Artist: Dion And The Belmonts
Words and Music by Richard Holler

Song: Abraham, Martin, And John

Anybody here seen my old friend Abraham?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed lotta people but it seems the good they die young
You know I just looked around and he's gone

Anybody here seen my old friend John?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed lotta people but it seems the good they die young
I just looked around and he's gone

Anybody here seen my old friend Martin?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed lotta people but it seems the good they die young
I just looked around and he's gone

Didn't you love the things that they stood for?
Didn't they try to find some good for you and me?
And we'll be free
Some day soon, it's gonna be one day

Anybody here seen my old friend Bobby?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
I thought I saw him walkin' up over the hill
With Abraham, Martin, and John

I'm still looking for the video for you. :)

This is a GREAT video, depicting the meaning of the song:

Thanks, this hunt down was fun! :)
