A Change Is Gonna Come

I was born by the river In a little 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 gonna 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 gonna come Oh, yes it will When I go to my brother, my brother, my brother And I say, "Brother, help me please" But he winds up knockin' me Right down on my, on the knees And 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, long time coming Well, I know, I know change gonna come Oh, yes it will It's been a long It's been a long, long time coming Well, I know, I know, I know change gonna come Oh, yes it will
