A Change Is Gonna Come

I was born by the river
In a little tent
And just like the river
I've been running ever since

It's been a long, long time coming
But I know, I know a change is gonna come
Oh, yes it is

It's been too hard living
And I don't wanne to die
I don't know what's up there, beyond the skies

But it's been a long, long time coming
But people let me tell you a change is gonna come
Oh yes it is, oh yes It is, oh yes it is

Then I go to my brothers
I say brothers, help me please
But my brothers they wind up knocking me
Right down, down on my knees

There was times that I thought
I wouldn't last for long
Now I know I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, long, long, long, long, long, long time coming
But people let me tell you a change is gonna come
Oh, yes it is, oh yes it is, oh yes it is

There's been love, there's been tears, there's been joy, there's been sorrow
Sometimes I thought I'd never be here tomorrow
