Change Gonna Come歌词
作词 : Sam Cooke
作曲 : Sam Cooke
I was born by the river, oh my
In this little old tent, oh
Just like this river
I've been runnin' ever since
It's been a long, long time comin'
But I know, but I know
A change has gotta come now
Oh yes it is now, oh my, oh my, oh my
It's been too hard livin', oh my
And I'm afraid to die
I don't know what's up there
Beyond the clouds
It's been a long, long time comin'
But I know, but I know
A change has gotta come
Oh yes it is now, oh my, oh my, oh my
There's a time
I will go to my brother, oh my
I've asked my brother
"Will you help me, please?"
Oh now, oh my
He turned me down
And then I asked my dear mother
Oh now, oh now
I said, "Mother"
I said, "Mother, I'm down on my knees"
It's been a time that I thought
Lord, this couldn't last very long
Oh now, oh
But somehow I thought I was still able
To try to carry on
It's been a long, long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Oh yes it is
Just like I said
I went to my little bitty brother
Oh my, my little brother now
I asked my brother
"Brother, help me please" oh now
He turned me down
And then I go to my little mother
My dear mother, oh now
I said, "Mother"
I said, "Mother, I'm down on my knees"
But there was a time that I thought
Lord, this couldn't last so very long
Oh my, oh
Somehow I thought I was still able
To try to carry on
It's been a long, long time coming
But I know, but I know
A change gotta come
Ooh it's been so long
It's been so long, a little too long
But a change has gotta come
I'm so tired, so tired of suffering
And standing by myself
And standing up alone
But a change has gotta come
You know and I know
You know and I know
That I know that you know, honey
That a change is gonne come, oh my...
