[00:04.670]I was born by the river in a little tent
[00:17.670]Just like the river I've been running ever since
[00:24.800]It's been a long, a long time coming
[00:32.0]But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
[00:41.880]
[00:41.920]I go to the movie and I go downtown
[00:53.750]Somebody keep telling me, "Don't hang around"
[01:00.820]It's been a long, a long time coming
[01:08.950]But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
[01:19.310]
[01:20.710]Then I go to my brother
[01:30.410]And I say, "Brother, help me please"
[01:39.380]But he winds up knockin' me
[01:49.720]Back down on my knees
[01:54.320]
[01:55.300]Oh there been times that I thought I couldn't last for long
[02:11.900]But now I think I'm able to carry on
[02:18.340]It's been a long, a long time coming
[02:24.340]But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
