A Change Is Gonna Come

I was born by the river, in a little tent.
Oh, just like the river, I've been running, ever since.
It's been a long, long time coming, but I know, 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 long time coming, but I know, change is gonna come.
Oh, yes it will.
I go to the movies, and I go downtown.
Somebody keep telling me, don't hang around.
It's been a long, long time coming, but I know, change is gonna come.
Oh, yes it will.
Then I go, to my brother, and I say brother, help me please, but then he winds up, knocking me, back down on my knees.
Oh.
There's been times when I thought, I couldn't last for long, and now I know that I'm able to carry on.
It's been a long, long time coming, but I know, change is gonna come.
Oh, yes it will.
