A Change Is Gonna Come Lyrics

I was born by the river in a little tent
Oh, 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 go'n 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, a long time coming but I know
A change go'n 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, a long time coming but I know
A change go'n come, oh yes it will.

Then I go to my brother,
And I say, "Brother, help me please."
But he winds up knockin' me, back down on my knees.

Oh, there been times that I thought I couldn't last for
long
But now I think I'm able to carry on.
It's been a long, a long time coming but I know
A change go'n come, oh yes it will.
