Leela James - A Change Is Gonna Come Lyrics




I was born by the river
In a little tent
Lord, just by the river I've been running ever since

[Chorus:]
It's been a long, a long time commin'
But I know, I know a change gonna come
Oh, yes it will

It's been too hard living
But I am afraid to die
'Cause I don't know what's out there beyond the sky

[Chorus]

There's been times that I thought
I wouldn't last for long
But somehow I think I'm able to carry on

[Chorus:]
It's been a long, a long time commin'
But I know, I know a change gonna come
Oh, yes it will

And then I go to my mother
(Can you help me)
I said, "Mother, could you help me please? " (Help me please)
She said, "I'd like to, I really would but I'm just not able"
Then I looked around and I was right back down
Down on my knees

There's been times that I thought I wouldn't last for long
But somehow I think I'm able to carry on

[Chorus]
