Текст песни A Change Is Gonna Come - Leslie Odom, Jr.

I was born by the river
In a little tent
Oh, and just like the river
I′ve been runnin' ever since

It′s been a long
A long time comin', but I know
A change gon' come
Oh, yes it will

It′s been too hard livin′
But I'm afraid to die
′Cause I don't know what′s up there
Beyond the sky

It's been a long
A long time comin′, but I know
A change gon' come
Oh, yes it will

I go to the movie
And I go downtown
Somebody keep tellin' me "don′t hang around"

It′s been a long
A long time comin', but I know
A change gon′ come
Oh, yes it will

Then I go to my brother
And I say, "Brother, help me please"
But he winds up
Knockin' mе
Back down on my knees
Lor′, there been time that I thought
I couldn't last for long
But now I think I′m ablе to
Carry on

It's been a long
A long time comin', but I know
A change gon′ come
Oh, yes it will
