shawn james & the shapeshifters - a change is gonna come lyrics
[verse 1]
i was born by a river in this little old tent
and just like this river i’ve been running ever since
it’s been a long, long time coming
but i know change is gotta come
oh, yes it is
[verse 2]
it’s been too hard living, oh
but i’m afraid to die
i don’t know what’s up there
beyond the clouds
it’s been a long long time coming
but i know, but i know a change is gotta come
oh yes it is
[pre-chorus]
there was a time i would go to my brother
i asked my brother, “can you help me, please?”
but he turned me down, so i go to my mother, oh
i said “mother! i’m down on my knees”
[chorus]
but there was a time that i thought
lord this couldn’t last for long
but somehow i thought i was still able to try to carry on
it’s been a long, long time coming
but i know change is gotta come
oh, yes it is
[pre-chorus]
just like i said, i went to my little bitty brother, my little brother
i asked my brother, “can you help me, please?”
but he turned me down, so i go to my mother, oh
i said “mother! i’m down on my knees”
[chorus]
but there was a time that i thought
lord this couldn’t last for long
but somehow i thought i was still able to try to carry on
it’s been a long, long time coming
but i know change is gotta come
oh yes it will
[outro]
it’s been a long, long time coming
but i know change is gotta come
