A Change Is Gonna Come

Wayne Brady-A Change Is Gonna Come

I was born by the river

in a little town

just like that river

i been runnin' ever since

its been a long,long time comin

but i know change is gonna come

its been too hard livin'

but i'm afraid to die,

cause i dont know whats up there;

the other side

its been a long time comin'

but i know a change is gonna come

i go to the movies, ha

and i go downtown

somebody keep tellin' me

dont hang around

its been a long, long time comin'

but i know a change gon' come

Then i go to my brother

and i say brother, help me please

but he winds up, oh winds up knockin' me

down on my, knockin me down on my knees

oh, theres been times that i thought

i wouldnt last too long

but now i know im able to carry on

its been a long long time comin'

but i know a change is gonna come

ohh
