A Change Is Gonna Come Songtext
von Sam Cooke
A Change Is Gonna Come Songtext
I was born by the river, in a little tent
Oh, and just like the river
I′ve been running ever since
It's been a long
A long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Oh, yes it will
It′s been too hard living
But I'm afraid to die
'Cause I don′t know what′s up there
Beyond the sky
It's been a long
A long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Oh, yes it will
I go to the movie
And I go downtown
Somebody keep telling me
Don′t hang around
It's been a long
A long time coming
But I know, a change gonna come
Oh, yes it will
Then I go to my brother
And I say, brother, help me please
But he winds up, knockin′ me
Back down on my knees
Oh, there been times that I thought
I couldn't last for long
But now I think I′m able, to carry on
It's been a long
A long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Oh, yes it will
Oh, and just like the river
I′ve been running ever since
It's been a long
A long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Oh, yes it will
It′s been too hard living
But I'm afraid to die
'Cause I don′t know what′s up there
Beyond the sky
It's been a long
A long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Oh, yes it will
I go to the movie
And I go downtown
Somebody keep telling me
Don′t hang around
It's been a long
A long time coming
But I know, a change gonna come
Oh, yes it will
Then I go to my brother
And I say, brother, help me please
But he winds up, knockin′ me
Back down on my knees
Oh, there been times that I thought
I couldn't last for long
But now I think I′m able, to carry on
It's been a long
A long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Oh, yes it will
