(Sam Cooke)

I was born by the river, In a little tent
Oh just like that 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 time coming, but I know
A change is gonna come, oh yes it will

(I go to the movie and I go downtown
Somebody keep tellin me
don't hang around)

It's been a 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 wind up knocking me
back down on my knees

There have been times that I thought
I couldn't last for long
But now I think I'm able to carry on

It's been a long time, but I know
A change is gonna come, oh yes it will
