Lyrics
I was born on a river
In a little tent
Well, just like that river
I've been running ever since
It's been a long
A long time coming
But I know
A change is gonna come now
Oh, yes it will
It's been too hard living
But I'm afraid to die
'Cause I don't know what's out there
Beyond the sky
It's been a long
A long time coming
But I know
A change is gonna come now
Oh, yes it will
There was a time
I went to my mother
And I asked my mother
"Could you help me please?"
She turned me down
And I went to my brother
No, no, no, no, no
And I said, "Brother"
I said, "Brother, I'm down on my knees"
Oh, no, no, no
There were times when I thought
I couldn't last very long
But somehow I was able
To carry on
It's been a long
It's been a long
A long time coming
But I know
A change is gonna come now
Oh, yes it will
