歌词
I was born by the river
我出生在河边
In a little tent
的一个小帐篷中
Oh and just like the river I've been running ever since
哦 就像着河流一样 自此我奔流不息
It's been a long, a long time coming
虽然还需要很长很长时间
But I know a change gonna come
但是我知道改变降至
Oh yes it will
哦 一定会来的
It's been too hard living
生活是如此的艰辛
But I'm afraid to die
但是我惧怕死亡
Cause I don't know what's up there beyond the sky
因为我不清楚这世界发生了什么 九天之外
It's been a long, a long time coming
虽然还需要很长很长时间
But I know a change gonna come
但是我知道改变降至
Oh yes it will
哦 一定会来的
I go to the movie
我去看电影
And I go downtown

Somebody keep telling me don't hang around
有的人一直告诫我不要在这里逗留
It's been a long, a long time coming
虽然还需要很长很长时间
But I know a change gonna come
但是我知道改变降至
Oh yes it will
哦 一定会来的
Then I go to my brother
然后我来到我的同胞面前
And I say: brother help me please
我说：请你们帮帮我
But he winds up knocking me
但是他挥拳打倒了我
Back down on my knees, ohhhhhh...
我跪在了地上 哦！！
There been times that I thought, I couldn't last for long
有时候我真的觉得坚持不下去
But now I think I'm able to carry on
但是现在我相信我已经可以继续向前
It's been a long, a long time coming
虽然还需要很长很长时间
But I know a change gonna come,
但是我知道改变降至
Oh yes it will
