[Intro]
Woah-woah, woah-woah
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
[Verse 1]
Do you remember Marcus?
Do you remember William Gordon?
Do you remember Paul Bogle?
Do you remember Riley?
[Chorus]
They're just gone, gone down the drain
They're just gone, gone down the drain
[Verse 2]
I've never seen a man return from the dead
I never see a man say he's from Heaven or Hell
[Chorus]
They're just gone, gone down the drain
They're just gone, gone down the drain
[Verse 3]
A man can't do more than his time
A man can't do more than his time
[Chorus]
They're just gone, gone down the drain
When we remember them, there are sometimes teardrops like rain
But they're gone, gone down the drain
[Bridge]
Oh now, woah-woah, oh dey
Uh weh, oh-oh
[Verse 4]
The father say you must help each and everyone
And you will live to be a better man
[Chorus]
Don't you go, don't go down the drain (No, no)
Don't go, don't go down the drain
[Verse 5]
We all are living here on the land
So, we should help each and every black man
[Chorus]
They're just gone, gone down the drain (Oh well)
Don't you go, don't you go down the drain
[Verse 6]
Remember Marcus
Remember William Gordon
Remember Paul Bogle
Remember Riley
[Outro]
They're just gone, gone down the drain
Woah-woah, woah-woah
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
