i was born by the river
in a little town
just like that river
i been runnin' ever since
its been a long,long time comin
but i know change is gonna come
its been too hard livin'
but i'm afraid to die,
cause i dont know whats up there;
the other side
its been a long time comin'
but i know a change is gonna come
i go to the movies, ha
and i go downtown
somebody keep tellin' me
[ Wayne Brady Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
dont hang around
its been a long, long time comin'
but i know a change gon' come
Then i go to my brother
and i say brother, help me please
but he winds up, oh winds up knockin' me
down on my, knockin me down on my knees
oh, theres been times that i thought
i wouldnt last too long
but now i know im able to carry on
its been a long long time comin'
but i know a change is gonna come
ohh
