Lyrics
I was born by the river in a little tent
And just like the river baby I've been running ever since
It's been a long, a long time coming
And I know a change is gonna come
It's been too hard living, but I'm afraid to die
'Cause I don't know what's up there baby beyond the sky
It's been a long, a long time coming
And I know a change is gonna come (Change)
Well, I go down to my brother
And I say, "Brother, help me please", yeah (Brother help me please)
But he winds up knockin' me back down
On my knees, yeah (On my knees)
Yeah
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 (It's been a long) long time coming
And I know a change is gonna come, oh yes it will
It's been a long (It's been a long) a long time coming
And I know a change is gonna come, oh yes it will
Well, it's been a long (Said it's been a long) long time coming
And I know a change is gonna come, change
I know it, I know it, I know, I know, I know
Change, change is gonna come
