THE ANIMALS - WINDS OF CHANGE lyrics

rate me

There are winds of changes blowing

Gathering leaves up in its path

And the people who are the leaves

Will remain in our hearts

With love, till eternity

King Elmore was born,

So was Duke Ellington

Jelly Roll made love

Bessie Smith was created in heaven above

Robert Johnson sang the blues

Shick Webb did those things that only he could do

Charlie Christian started a new thing

And, oh my, how Billie Holiday could sing

Alan Freed rock and rolled,

Joe Turner's voice was very low

B.B. King wailed

Charlie Parker cried

Louis Jordan smiled

Ray Charles moaned,

Chuck Berry rock and rolled

Fats Domino made me feel good

Elvis Presley did things that no one thought he could

Then came the Beatles, Rolling Stones

Whole new thing was going on.

Frank Zappa zapped

Mamas and Papas knew where it was at

They all listened to Ravi Shankar.

Now that we got Jimi Hendrix

We know where we are (and Louis Jordan smiled)

And the winds of change go on blowing, blowing,

Gathering more and more leaves in its path,

As time goes past

Winds of change keep on blowing,

Winds of change keep on blowing,

Bob Dylan sang about the winds of change

Blowing, it's all blowing, the winds of change.
