Neil Diamond - Done Too Soon lyrics

Jesus Christ, Fanny Brice,

Wolfie Mozart and Humphrey Bogart and

Genghis Khan and

On to H.G. Wells.

Ho Chi Minh, Gunga Din

Henry Luce and John Wilkes Booth

and Alexanders

King and Graham Bell.

Ramar Krishna, mama Whistler,

Patrice Lumumba and Russ Colombo,

Karl and Chico Marx,

Albert Camus.

E.A. Poe, Henri Rousseau,

Sholom aleichem and Caryl Chessman,

Alan Freed and

Buster Keaton too

And each one there

has one thing shared

They have sweated beneath the same sun

Looked up in wonder at the same moon

and wept when it was all done

For bein' done too soon

For bein' done too soon

For bein' done.
