Song lyrics

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 gonna come, oh yes it will

It's been too hard livin but I'm afraid to die
'Сause 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 gonna come, oh yes it will

I go to the movie and I go downtown
Somebody keep telling me don't hang around

It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

Then I go to my brother
And I said brother help me please
But he winds up knocking me
Back down on my knees
There have been times that I thought
I couldn't last for long
Now I think I'm able to carry on

It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, yes it will
