A Change is Gonna Come Lyrics – Sam Cooke
I was born by the river
In a little tent
Oh, 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 gon′ 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 gon’ come
Oh yes, it will
I go to the movie
And I go downtown
And somebody keep telling me
“Don′t hang around”
It’s been a long
A long time coming, but I know
A change gon′ come
Oh yes, it will
Then, I go to my brother
And I say, “Brother, help me, please”
But he winds up knockin’ me
Back down on my knees, oh
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 time coming, but I know
A change gon’ come
Oh yes, it will
