Well I was born by the river In a little old tent 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 is gonna come And 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 is gonna come Well I go down to the movies And I go downtown But there's somebody telling me I cannot hang around It's been a long a long time coming I know a change is gonna come oh yes it is now So I go I go to my brother I say brother can help me please He just winds up He just winds up knockin' me down Back down on my knees Oh there's been times when I thought I couldn't last too long Somehow I was able to try to carry on It's been a long a long time coming But I know a change is gonna come
