There's an old friend that

I once heard say

Something that touched my heart

And it began this way

I was born by the river

In a little tent

And just like the river

I've been runnin' ever since

He said it's been a long time comin'

But I know my change is gonna come

Oh yeah

He said it's been too hard livin'

But I'm afraid to die

I might not be if I knew what was up there

Beyond the sky

It's been a long a long time comin'

But I know my change has got to come

Oh yeah

I went I went to my brother

And I asked him Brother

Could you help me please

He said Good sister

I'd like to but I'm not able

And when I when I looked around

I was right back down

Down on my bended knees

Yes I was oh

There've been times that I thought

I thought that I wouldn't last for long

But somehow right now

I believe that I'm able

I'm able to carry on

I tell you that it's been a long

And oh it's been an uphill journey

All the way

But I know I know I know

I know my change is gonna come

Sometimes

I had to cry all night long

Yes I did

Sometimes

I had to give up right

For what I knew was wrong

Yes it's been an uphill journey

It's sure's been a long way comin'

Yes it has

It's been real hard every step of the way

But I believe I believe

This evenin' my change is come

Yeah

I tell you that my change is come
