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, long time coming
But I know a change gon' come, oh yes it will
It's been too-too-too hard living, but I'm afraid to die, oh
I don't know what's up there beyond the sky
It's been a long, long time coming
But I know a change gon' come, oh yes it will
I go to my baby-baby-baby-baby brother
I said, "Brother, can you help me please"
He winded up turnin' me down so I went to my dearly mother
I said, "Mother", I said, "Mother, oh I'm down, oh I'm down on my knees"
There were times where I'd go alone
I couldn't last very, very long
But somehow I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, a long time, a long time coming
Oh, but I know, I know change is gon' come, oh yes it will
I go to my baby, baby brother (oh, brother)
I said, "Brother, can you help me please" (help me)
He winded up turnin' me down (turnin' me down)
I said, "Mother", I said, "Mother, I'm knocked down, I'm knocked down"
There been times that I thought, oh, I couldn't last very, very long
But somehow I'm able to carry on
It's been a long time (so long)
It's been a long time
But I know change is gon' come (change is gon' come)
(Change is gon' come)
(Change is gon' come)
I said, "Lord, I can't love, I can't love"
I've gotta change, I've gotta change
Oh, it's comin' for us
