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 (long time)
A long time coming, but I know
Change gon′ come (change's 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 (long time)
A long time coming, but I know
Change′s gon' come (change′s gonna come)
Oh yes, it will
I go to the movies
And I go downtown
And my friends keep telling me
"Don't, don't hang around"
It′s been a long
(A long time coming)
But I know
Change is gonna come
Oh, yes, it will
Listen to me baby
Then, I go to my brother
And I say, "Brother, help me, please"
But then he winds up knockin′ me
Back down, back down on to my knees, oh
There are times that I thought
I wouldn't last for long
But now, I know I′m able (oh)
To carry on
It's been a long
(A long time coming)
But I know
Change is
(Change′s gonna come)
In a little tent
Oh, and just like the river, I′ve been running
Ever since
It's been a long (long time)
A long time coming, but I know
Change gon′ come (change's 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 (long time)
A long time coming, but I know
Change′s gon' come (change′s gonna come)
Oh yes, it will
I go to the movies
And I go downtown
And my friends keep telling me
"Don't, don't hang around"
It′s been a long
(A long time coming)
But I know
Change is gonna come
Oh, yes, it will
Listen to me baby
Then, I go to my brother
And I say, "Brother, help me, please"
But then he winds up knockin′ me
Back down, back down on to my knees, oh
There are times that I thought
I wouldn't last for long
But now, I know I′m able (oh)
To carry on
It's been a long
(A long time coming)
But I know
Change is
(Change′s gonna come)
