I was born by the river in a little tent
Just like that river, I've been runnin' ever since
It's been a long, long time comin'
But I know a change gonna come
Oh yes it will
It's been too hard a-livin' but I'm afraid to die
I don't know what's up there beyond the sky
It's been a long, long time comin'
But I know a change gonna come
Oh yes it will
Then I go to my brother
I say Brother help me please
But he winds up knockin' me
Back down, back down on my knees
Whoa there've been times, I couldn't last for long
Now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, long time comin'
But I know a change gonna come
Oh yes it will
It's been too hard a-livin' but I'm afraid to die
I don't know what's up there beyond the sky
It's been a long, long time comin'
But I know a change gonna come
Oh yes it will
It's been a long, long time comin'
But I know a change gonna come
Oh yes it will
