Текст песни Joy Denalane - Cooke: A Change is Gonna Come (Version for Voice, Solo Violin and Piano)
I was born by the river in a little tent
And just like the river
I've been running ever since
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Oh yes, it will
It's been too hard living
But I'm afraid to die
'Cause I don't know what's up there
Beyond the sky
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Oh yes, it will
I go to the movie
And I go downtown
But somebody keep telling me
Don't hang around
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Oh yes, it will
Then I go, I go to my brother
And I said, "Brother, would you help me please?"
But he winds up knocking me
Back down on my knees
There've been times when I thought
I couldn't last for long
But now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, a long, long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Oh yes, it will
A change gonna come
Oh yes, it will
