The Times They Are A-Changin'

Come gather 'round people wherever you roam And admit that the waters around you have grown Accept it soon, you'll be drenched to the bone If your time to you is worth savin' Then you better start swimmin', you could sink like a stone For the times, they are a-changin' Come mothers and fathers throughout the land And don't criticize what you can't understand Your sons and your daughters, beyond your command Your old road is rapidly agin' So get out of the new one if you can't lend your hand For the times, they are a-changin' For the times, they are a-changin' The line, it is drawn, the curse, it is cast The slow one now will later be fast The present now will later be past The order is rapidly fadin' And the first one now will later be last For the times they are a-changin'
