Lyrics:

I was born by a river
In a little tent
Oh! And just like the river
I' ve been runnin ever since
It's been a long, long time coming
And i know , a change gone come
Oh! Yes it will

It's been to hard living
But i'm afraid to die
Cause i don't know whats up there
Beyond the sky
It's been a long, long time coming
And i know a change gone come
Oh! Yes it will

I go to the movies
And i go downtown
Someone keeps tellin me don't
Hang around
It's been a long, long time coming
And i know, Change gone come
Oh! Yes it will

Then i go to my brother
And i say brother help me please
But he winds up knockin me
Back out on my knees oh!

There's been times when i thought
I wounldn't last for long
But now i think i'm able to
Carry on
It's been a long, long time comin
And i know a change gone come
Oh! Yes it will
