Change Gonna Come

I was born by the river In a little tent and gorgeous like the river I've been runnin, ever since It's been a long a long time coming but I, I know a change gonna come Ooooh yes it will It's been to hard living, But I am afraid to die cause I don't know what's up there beyond the sky It's been a long a long time coming but I, I know a change gonna come Ooooh yes it will There's been times that I thought I wouldn't last for long (naww) But somehow I think I'm able to carry on It's been a long a long time coming but I know, I know a change is gonna come Oooh yes you will And then I go to my mother I said mother could you help me please? She said: I'd like to, I really would, but I'm just not able Then I looked around and I was right back down, down on my knees There's been times that I thought I wouldn't last for long But somehow I think I'm able to carry on It's been a long a long time coming but I know ... a change gonna come Ooooh yes it will...
