They found him in the lane
  With cocaine in his brain
  They found him on his own Someone saw him lying there
    [Chorus:]
  I heard what was said
  Another rebel dead
    They say he killed himself
  But it was someone else
  His name was on their list
  And now he don't exist
  He didn't stand a chance
  Upon his grave they dance
  They were determined to blow him out
  And so the papers read
  That Johnny Smith was dead
  A little girl asked why
  And made her brother cry
  Why did they make him go that way?
