well gather round children for a precious word
i'm gonna do some chirping but I ain't no bird
it's a sad sad tale about chairman fred
and the night that it rained down hell on his head
it was december 4th back in sixty nine
bill o neal did a deal so he wouldn't do time
we need you on the inside next to the panthers
then turn state's evidence and get us some answers
but fred was clean, that's just how he lived
but the feds saw his guns, not his breakfast for kids
violent organization a threat to our union
our states will not have a cohesive black movement
so when the group ate dinner at midnight that night
bill had slipped fred a little go nighty night
he was out cold for the 4am raid
and the shots fired ripped through his brain
didn't it rain
god sent the angel to spread the news
he hasted his wings and away he flew
to the north to the south To the east and the west
the chairman is dead and there's seven arrests
14 cops fired 99 shots
the trib ate it up but sun times did not
o neal learned he sent a good man to his grave
and over 5,000 cried that day
didn't it rain
didn't that rain fall down my Lord
some at the window some at the door
the people cried noah can't you take one more
how they screamed at the sky as it unburdened its load
it was 2 years more until they opened the drawer
and uncovered the secret of cointelpro
j edgar hoover was an activist remover
always the killer, just never the shooter
this was fifty years ago, fred jr has grown
chicago cops still shoot up fred's head stone
the last sound o neil heard were brakes in the rain
he just couldn't live with the pain
didn't it rain

At the end of the month, we vote for our top three recordings. The winning entry selects the next month's band. Good times and killer recordings since 2014! ... more
