[00:11.80]I was born by the river in a little tent
[00:21.41]Oh, and just like that river I've been running ever since
[00:27.53]It's been a long, long time coming
[00:34.02]But I know a change is gonna come
[00:40.43]Oh, yes it will
[00:43.42]It's been too hard living and I'm affraid to die
[00:52.22]I don't know what's up there beyond the sky
[00:58.96]It's been a long, long time coming
[01:05.32]But I know a change is gonna come
[01:11.42]Oh, yes! it will, yes! it will
[01:15.42]I go to the movies and I go down town
[01:24.50]Somebody keep telling me "Don't hang around"
[01:30.56]It's been a long a long time coming
[01:36.98]But I know a change is gonna come
[01:43.53]Oh, yes! it will
[01:48.33]Then I go to my brother
[01:56.41]And I say "Brother, would you help me please?"
[02:03.54]But he winds up knocking me
[02:12.21]Back down on my knees
[02:19.35]When I thought I couldn't last for long
[02:26.84]But now I think I'm able to carry on
[02:33.45]It's been a long long time coming
[02:39.82]But I know a change is gonna come
[02:45.21]It's been a long long time coming
[02:51.89]But I know a change is gonna come
[02:59.19]Yes! it will, yes! it will
