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 comin'
But I know a change gon' come
Oh, yes, it will

It's been too hard livin'
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 comin'
But I know a change gon' come
Oh, yes, it will

I go to the movie
And I go downtown
Somebody keep telling me
Don't hang around

It's been a long
A long time comin'
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

Oh, 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 comin'
But I know a change gon' come
Oh, yes, it will
