Herbie Hancock, James Morrison - A Change Is Gonna Come lyrics
[Herbie Hancock, James Morrison - A Change Is Gonna Come lyrics]
I was born by the river, oh
In a little ol' tent
Oh, just like that river
I've been running ever since
It's been a long, long time coming
But, I know a change has gotta come
Oh, yes, it will
It's been too hard living, oh
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 is gonna come
Yes, it will
And I go to the movie, and I go downtown
Somebody keep on telling me
Don't you hang around
It's been a long, a long time coming
But, I know a change gonna come
Oh, yes, it will
And I go to my brother
I say, brother, brother, won't
You help me, please
But he just winds up knocking me down
Oh, back down on my knees
There's been times when I thought I
Couldn't last for very 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 has gotta come
Oh, yes, it will yes, it will
There's a time when I go to my brother
I say, brother, I say, brother
Won't you help me, please
But he just winds up knocking me down, down
Down down on my knees
There's been times that I thought I
Couldn't last for very long
But now, I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, a long time coming
But, I know, but I know, I know, I know
I know a change has got to come
Oh, yes, it will
In a little ol' tent
Oh, just like that river
I've been running ever since
It's been a long, long time coming
But, I know a change has gotta come
Oh, yes, it will
It's been too hard living, oh
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 is gonna come
Yes, it will
And I go to the movie, and I go downtown
Somebody keep on telling me
Don't you hang around
It's been a long, a long time coming
But, I know a change gonna come
Oh, yes, it will
And I go to my brother
I say, brother, brother, won't
You help me, please
But he just winds up knocking me down
Oh, back down on my knees
There's been times when I thought I
Couldn't last for very 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 has gotta come
Oh, yes, it will yes, it will
There's a time when I go to my brother
I say, brother, I say, brother
Won't you help me, please
But he just winds up knocking me down, down
Down down on my knees
There's been times that I thought I
Couldn't last for very long
But now, I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, a long time coming
But, I know, but I know, I know, I know
I know a change has got to come
Oh, yes, it will
