Tony Joe White - The Change lyrics
[Tony Joe White - The Change lyrics]
I wanna talk to you about
The time of the year, we call it the fall
It's a time when you can feel a change coming
Like sometimes late in the evening
You can feel a little brisk air
Nipping at the back of your neck
Kind of make you wanna scrunch up your shoulders
And put a blue jeans jumper up around you
You can feel it in your bones
You know a change is gonna come
A little change never done nobody no harm
It's the time always makes me think about
Old Hobo's sitting out around the camp fires at night fall
And some more coffee in an old tin can
Trying to keep warm, listen to them
But it is also a time when I get a restless feeling
Makes me wanna just get on a freight train
And ride somewhere like there is something somewhere
Saying, come see about me and check me out
You can feel it in your bones, oh yes, you can
You know a change is gonna come
A little change never done nobody no harm
It's a time if you go out in the woods
You can see the turning of the leaves
And a kind of smells good to you, yeah
But it don't last long
For you know it, winter's come, clamping down on you
And you are hovering in your coat
Trying to keep yourself warm
But it's a good time, it's a good thing, it's a change
You can feel it in your bones
You know a change is gonna come
A little change never done nobody no harm
The time of the year, we call it the fall
It's a time when you can feel a change coming
Like sometimes late in the evening
You can feel a little brisk air
Nipping at the back of your neck
Kind of make you wanna scrunch up your shoulders
And put a blue jeans jumper up around you
You can feel it in your bones
You know a change is gonna come
A little change never done nobody no harm
It's the time always makes me think about
Old Hobo's sitting out around the camp fires at night fall
And some more coffee in an old tin can
Trying to keep warm, listen to them
But it is also a time when I get a restless feeling
Makes me wanna just get on a freight train
And ride somewhere like there is something somewhere
Saying, come see about me and check me out
You can feel it in your bones, oh yes, you can
You know a change is gonna come
A little change never done nobody no harm
It's a time if you go out in the woods
You can see the turning of the leaves
And a kind of smells good to you, yeah
But it don't last long
For you know it, winter's come, clamping down on you
And you are hovering in your coat
Trying to keep yourself warm
But it's a good time, it's a good thing, it's a change
You can feel it in your bones
You know a change is gonna come
A little change never done nobody no harm
