The Times They Are a Changing
Come gather 'round people, wherever you roam
And admit that the waters around you have grown
And accept it, that soon you'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'
Come writers and critics, you prophesied with your pen
Yes and keep your eyes wide, the chance won't come again
And don't speak too soon, for the wheel's still in spin
And there's no tellin' who, that it's namin'
For the loser now, is later to win
For the times they are a-changin'
Come mothers and fathers, throughout the land
Don't criticize what you don't understand
Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command
Your road is rapidly agein'
Please get out of the new one if you can't lend a hand
For the times they are a-changin'
Changin'
The loser now is later to win
Get out of the new one
If you can't lend a hand
The first one now will later be last
For the times they are a-changin'
For the times are a-changin'
For the times they are a-changin'
Yes the times, the times
Oh, this time
Come mothers and fathers throughout the land
But don't criticize what you don't understand
Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command
Your road is rapidly agein'
Please get out of the new one if you can't lend a hand
For the times they are a-changin'
The loser now is later to win
Get out of the new one
If you can't lend a hand
The first one now will later be last
For the times
"Yes"
For the times they are a-changin'
They are changin'
"Times them are change ya know"
("How are we changin' 'em")
And admit that the waters around you have grown
And accept it, that soon you'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'
Come writers and critics, you prophesied with your pen
Yes and keep your eyes wide, the chance won't come again
And don't speak too soon, for the wheel's still in spin
And there's no tellin' who, that it's namin'
For the loser now, is later to win
For the times they are a-changin'
Come mothers and fathers, throughout the land
Don't criticize what you don't understand
Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command
Your road is rapidly agein'
Please get out of the new one if you can't lend a hand
For the times they are a-changin'
Changin'
The loser now is later to win
Get out of the new one
If you can't lend a hand
The first one now will later be last
For the times they are a-changin'
For the times are a-changin'
For the times they are a-changin'
Yes the times, the times
Oh, this time
Come mothers and fathers throughout the land
But don't criticize what you don't understand
Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command
Your road is rapidly agein'
Please get out of the new one if you can't lend a hand
For the times they are a-changin'
The loser now is later to win
Get out of the new one
If you can't lend a hand
The first one now will later be last
For the times
"Yes"
For the times they are a-changin'
They are changin'
"Times them are change ya know"
("How are we changin' 'em")
