A Child Is Coming Songtext
von Jefferson Starship

Last electric Sunday mornin′ waitin' in the park for the dawn
Listenin′ to all the animals in the Park and in the city beyond
Flashin' with my lady. sky goin' black to blue
She said I got a surprise for you

A child is coming
A child is coming
A child is coming to you

What are we gonna do when Uncle Samuel comes around
Askin′ for the young one′s name
And lookin' for the print of his hand for the files in their numbers game
I don′t want his chances for freedom to ever be that slim
Let's not tell ′em about him -

A child is coming
A child is coming
A child is coming to you, it's comin′

[Paul, David,


It's gettin' better
To be born
It′s gettin′ better
Feels like a morning
It's gettin′ better
It's growing
Brighter
Shining
It′s gettin' better
Changing
It′s gettin' better
Gathering
It's gettin′ brighter
It′s spreading
Together
With each other
It's gettin′ finer
To tell the truth
It's gettin′ finer
To be alive
It's gettin′ better
To be born
It's gettin' better
To create
It′s gettin′ better
To learn
It's gettin′ brighter
To grow
In the dawn
To change
It's gettin′ finer
To live in harmony
It's gettin′ better
We can be together
Together
We can work it out
And all of us together
Build
Gettin' better
Building
Gettin' finer
Gathering
Gettin′ brighter
Shining
Gettin′ better
Learnin'
In the dawn
Burnin′ brighter
Gettin' better
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
To grow
Tomorrow
To help another
Tomorrow
It′s gettin' better
Da, da, da, da, da

I wanna see his head rising
I wanna see his head rise to mine
