“A Change is Gonna’ Come,” Sam Cooke, 1963 I was born by the river in a little tent
Oh and just like the river I've been running ever sinceIt's been a long, a long time comingBut I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
It's been too hard living but I'm afraid to dieCause I don't know what's up there beyond the skyIt's been a long, a long time comingBut I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
I go to the movie and I go downtownSomebody keep telling me don't hang aroundIt's been a long, a long time comingBut I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
Then I go to my brotherAnd I say brother help me pleaseBut he winds up knocking meBack down on my knees
Ohhhhhhhhh.....There been times that I thought I couldn't last for longBut now I think I'm able to carry onIt's been a long, a long time comingBut I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
