The Times They Are A‐Changin’ Songtext
von Me First and the Gimme Gimmes
The Times They Are A‐Changin’ Songtext
Come gather ′round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you is worth savin′
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin′
Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
And don′t stand in the doorway
Don't lock up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
The battle outside ragin′
Will soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'
Come mothers and fathers throughout the land
And don′t criticize what you can't understand
Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command
Your old road is rapidly aging
Please, get out of the new one
If you can′t lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin'
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you is worth savin′
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin′
Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
And don′t stand in the doorway
Don't lock up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
The battle outside ragin′
Will soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'
Come mothers and fathers throughout the land
And don′t criticize what you can't understand
Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command
Your old road is rapidly aging
Please, get out of the new one
If you can′t lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin'
