I was born by the river in a little tent Just like the river I've been running ever since It's been a long, a long time coming But I know change is gonna come, ooh yes it will It's been too hard living but I'm afraid to die I don't know what's up there beyond the sky It's been a long, a long, long time coming But I know a change is gonna come, oh yes And I go to the movies and I go downtown Everybody they keep telling me don't you come around It's been a long, oh it's been a long time coming But I know a change is gonna come, oh yeah Then I go, go to my brother, I say brother help me please He just winds up knocking me down, back down on my knees And there are times I thought I wouldn't last too long But now I know that I, I, I, I can carry on It's been a long, long time coming But I know my change is gonna come, ooh yeah It's gonna come
