I was born by the river
In a little tent
And just like the river
I've been running ever since
It's been a long long time coming
But I know a change is gonna 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 long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Oh yes it will

I go to the movies
And I go downtown
Somebody keep telling me
"Don't, don't hang around"
It's been a long long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Oh yes it will

Then I go to my brother and I say,
"Brother, help me please"
But he winds up knocking me back
Down on my knees
There've been times that I've thought
I couldn't last for long

But now I think
I'm able to
To carry on
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Oh yes it will
