I was born by the river
|
In a little tent
|
And just like the river
|
I've been runnin' ever since
|
It's been a long, long time comin'
|
But I know, a change is gonna come
|
Oh, yes it will
|
|
It's been too hard livin'
|
But I'm afraid to die
|
I don't know what's up there
|
Beyond the sky
|
It's been a long, a long time comin'
|
But I know, a change is gonna come
|
Oh, yes it will
|
|
|
I go to the movie
|
And I go downtown
|
Somebody's tellin' me
|
Don't you hang around
|
It's been a long, long time comin'
|
But I know, a change is gonna come
|
Oh, yes it will
|
|
|
Then I go to my brother
|
I say brother, brother help me please
|
But he just winds up knocking me
|
Back down on my knees, well
|
|
|
There were times that I thought
|
I couldn't make it alone
|
But now I'm able, I'm able
|
To carry on
|
It's been a long, a long time comin'
|
But I know, a change is gonna come
|
Oh, yes it will
|
Lord, it's been a long time comin'
|
But I know, a change is gonna come
|
