Song for Bobby Smith Gil Scott-Heron & Brian Jackson

[Intro; Spoken]
I know a young warrior named Bobby Smith
He's gonna be four years old on his next birthday
He happened to be with Brian and me when we wrote this song
It's about new life and new spirit new feelings
We asked Bobby "Bobby what should we call this song?"
And he said "Ooh that's pretty that's my song"
And that was very appropriate this song for new life
Should be about Bobby
This is a song for Bobby Smith

[Verse 1]
Ain't you been there? Ain't you going?
Can't you taste your Ideas growing?
We are soldiers, soldiers of a new day
Can't you see it? Can't you feel it in your heart?

[Verse 2]
Ain't you been there and ain't you going?
To a place where friendship's flowing?
We are brothers and brothers and sisters in a spirit
Can't you see it? Yeah, can't you feel it in your heart?

[Electric Piano Solo]

[Verse 3]
Ain't you been there? Ain't you going?
Can't you take this love I'm showing?
Got to be you and me and you and me together
Can't you see it? Can't you feel it in your heart?
