I was born by the river
In a little tent, oh and
just like that river
I've been running ever since
It's been a long, a long time coming, but I know
A change is 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 is gonna come, oh yes it will
I go to the movie and I go downtown
Somebody keep tellin' me
don't hang around
It's been a long, a long time coming, but I know
A change is gonna come, oh yes it will
Then I go to my brother
and I say brother help me please
But he winds up knocking me
back down on my knees
Oh There have 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 is gonna come, yes it will
