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 coming
A long time coming, but I know
A change gon' come
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
Long timing coming
A long time coming, but I know
A change gon' come
A change gonna come
Oh yes, it will
I go to the movies
And I go downtown
And my friends keep telling me
"Don't hang around"
It's been a long
A long time coming, but I know A change is gonna come
Change is gonna come
Yes it will, oh
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 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
Long time coming, but I know
Change
Change is gonna come
Finally change
In a little tent
Oh, and just like the river I've been running ever since
It's been a long
Long time coming
A long time coming, but I know
A change gon' come
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
Long timing coming
A long time coming, but I know
A change gon' come
A change gonna come
Oh yes, it will
I go to the movies
And I go downtown
And my friends keep telling me
"Don't hang around"
It's been a long
A long time coming, but I know A change is gonna come
Change is gonna come
Yes it will, oh
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 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
Long time coming, but I know
Change
Change is gonna come
Finally change
