By The People; For The People movie - A Change Is Gonna Come lyrics
rate meI was born by the river in a little tent<br>
Oh and just like the river<br>
I've been running ever since<br>
It's been a long, a long time coming<br>
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will<br>
<br>
It's been too hard living but I'm afraid to die<br>
Cause I don't know what's up there beyond the sky<br>
It's been a long, a long time coming<br>
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will<br>
<br>
I go to the movie and I go downtown<br>
Somebody keep telling me don't hang around<br>
It's been a long, a long time coming<br>
But I know a change gonna come<br>
Oh yes it will<br>
<br>
Then I go to my brother<br>
And I say brother help me please<br>
But he winds up knockin' me<br>
Back down on my knees<br>
<br>
There been times that I thought<br>
I couldn't last for long<br>
But now I think I'm able to carry on<br>
It's been a long, a long time coming<br>
But I know a change gonna come,<br>
Oh yes it will<br>
<br>
