Solomon Burke - Change Is Gonna Come Lyrics

Lyrics Change Is Gonna Come - Solomon Burke



Oh, a change is gonna come
Oh, a change is gonna come
Oh, a change is gonna come
Ooh-ooh-ooh
I was born by the river
In a little shark-like tent
And just like the river
Lord, I've been runnin' it, pushin' it ever since
It's been a long, long time coming
But I wanna tell y'all a change is gonna come y'all
Oh, yes it is
It's been too hard living
And it cost too much to die
And I don't even know what's up there
Way beyond the sky
It's been a long, long time coming
But I wanna tell you a change is gonna come y'all
Oh, yes it is
Now listen to me (oh yes it is)
There have been times
I've gone to my brother for a little help y'all
And I said, "Brother will you help me please? Ha!"
But my brother will only wind up knockin' me
Knockin' me back down, down, down, down
Down on my knees
Lord, there was a time when I thought
I couldn't hold up much longer
Now I know I'm able
To keep on pushing and makin' a little song
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I wanna tell you a big change is gonna come, y'all
Oh, yes, it will
(Oh, yes it will) yes sir
It's been a long, a long time coming
My people a change is gonna come
Oh yeah, yes sir
