Sam Cooke - A Change Is Gonna Come (Official Lyric Video)
Seal - A Change Is Gonna Come [Official Music Video]
I was born by the river in a little tent Oh, and just like the river I’ve been a-runnin’ ever since. It’s been a long, a long time comin’, but I know, oh-oo-oh, a change gon’ come, oh yes, it will.
It’s been too hard living 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, oh-oo-oh, A change gonna 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 coming, but I know, oh-oo-oh, A change gon’ come, oh yes, it will.
Then I go, oh-oo-oh, to my brother and I say, brother, help me please. But he winds up knocking me back down on my knees, oh.
There’ve been times that I thought I couldn’t last for long But now I think I’m able to carry on It’s been a long, a long time comin’, But I know, oh-oo-oh, a change gonna come, oh yes, it will.
