He was my brother
Five years older than I
He Was my brother
Twenty-three years old the day he died
Freedom writer
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 was my brother
And he died so his borthers could be free
He died so his brothers could be free

This song was dedicated for Andrew Goodman, an activist of the american civil rights and a friend of both Simon and Garfunkel, that was killed by Ku klux Klan in 1964.

amazing...thats all i can say about this song, its practically a true story for me, my brother was murdered recently, and I already loved Paul Simon, I think Simon once again knew my life before I was even born.
and thanks JudeorEleanor (I love that name btw, yay for the beatles. lol)
