A Change Is Gonna Come

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 gon' 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 gon' come, oh yes it will
I go to the movie and I go down town
Somebody keep telling me don't hang around
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gon' 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
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 gon' come, oh yes it will
Say I know that a chance is gonna come one day
I know change gonna come
I know, I know, I know
Still I know a change gonna come

Yes it'll
Yes it'll
Yes it'll
