Lyrics

I was born by the river In a little tent Lord, just like the river I've been runnin' ever since It's been a long A long time comin' But I know a change gonna come Oh, yes it will, looky here It's been too hard livin' And 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 comin' But I know a change gonna come Oh, yes it will, looky here I go to the movie And I go downtown But all I can hear is somebody keep tellin' me "Boy, don't hang around" It's been a long A long time comin' But I know a change gonna come Oh, yes it will Then I go to my brother And I tell him, "Brother, help me please" But he winds up knockin' me He knocks me back down on my knees There have been times when I thought I couldn't last for long I know I'm able to carry on It's been a long A long time comin' But I know a change gonna come Oh, yes it will Then I go to my brother And I tell him, "Brother, help me please" But he winds up knockin' me He knocks me back down on my knees There have been times when I thought I couldn't last for long I know I'm able to carry on It's been a long A long time comin' But I know a change gonna come Oh, yes it will But he winds up knockin' me Back down on, back down on my knees There have been times when I thought I couldn't last for long I know I'm able to carry on I know, I know, I know that a A change gonna come And oh, yes it will Somebody say "Yeah" You all back here, let me hear you say "Yeah" Somebody say "Oh yeah" Say it again, say "Oh yeah" Somebody say "Yeah" Bye-bye
