I was born by the river
In a tentament
And oh, my poor mother she could hardly pay the rent
It's been a long, a long time coming but I know
A change is gonna come, oh yes it will

Its been too hard of living
And im afraid to die
I dont' know what's out there beyond the sky
Its been a long, a long time coming but I know
A change is gonna come, oh yes it will

See I go to my brother
And I say brother, "help me please"
And he winds up knocking me
Back down on my knees

Its been times when I didn't think
that I would last for long
But now we think we are all to carry on
Its been a long, a long time coming but I know
a change is gonna come, oh yes it will
