Lyrics

作词 : COOKE, SAM
I was born by a river, oh my
In this little old town, oh
Just like this river
I've been running ever since
It's been a long, long, long
Long time coming but
I know, but
I knowChanges gotta come, now
Oh yes it is, my oh, my oh, my oh, my
It's been too hard livin', oh my
And I'm afraid to die
I don't know what's up there
Beyond the clouds
It's been a long, long, long
Long time coming but
I know, but
I knowThat changes gotta come
Oh yes it is, my oh, my oh, my
There's a time
I will go to my brother, oh my
I would ask my brother
Will you help me please, oh now oh now
He turned me down
And then I asked my little mother, oh my oh
I said, "Mother",
I said, "MotherI'm down on my knees"
It's been time that
I knowLord, it's too late
Very long, oh now oh
Somehow I thought
I was still able
To try to carry on
It's been a long, long, long
Long time coming but
I knowThat changes gonna come
Oh yes, it is
Huh, just like
I saidI went to my little bitty brother, oh my
My little brother,
I asked my brother"Brother, help me please", oh now
He turned me down
And then I go to my little mother
My dear mother, oh now, huh
I said, "Mother",
I said"Mother, I'm down on my knees"
But there was a time that
I knowLord, it's too late
So very long, oh my oh
Somehow I thought
I was still able
To try to carry on
It's been a long, long
Long time coming but
I know, but
I knowThat changes gotta come, ho
It's been so long,
It's been so long
A little long
But changes gotta come
So tired, so tired of suffering
Standing by myself
Has given up a home
But changes gotta come
You know and
I knowYou know that
I knowAnd
I know that you know
Honey, that a change is gonna come
Oh now, oh my,
I gotta
