A Change Is Gonna Come Lyrics - Singles - The Supremes

(S. Cooke) 

I was born by the river 

In a little tent 

And just like the river 

I've been running ever since 

It's been a long, long time coming 

But I know a change gonna come 

Oh, yes it is 

It's been too hard living 

But I'm afraid to die 

I don't know what's up there beyond the sky

It's been a long, long time coming 

But I know a change gonna come 

Oh yes it will 

Then I go to my brother 

I say brother help me please 

But he winds up knocking me 

Back down on my knees

There's been times that I thought 

I wouldn't last for long 

But now I think I'm able to carry on 

It's been a long, long time coming 

But I know a change is gonna come 

Oh, yes it will
