Intro: Change Is Gonna Come

I was born by the river

In a little tent

No just like that river I've

Been running ever since

It's been a long
A long time coming
But I knowowwwww
A change gon'come

Oh yes it will

It's been tooooooo 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 tiiiime
A long time coming
But I knowowwwww
A change gon'come
Oh yes it will

And I go to my brother yes I do

And say Brother
Help me please well well

But he winds up

Knocking me

I got on my knees

Oahhhoooohhhhh
There's been times
That I thought

I wouldn 't last too long
Capone N Noreaga
But I think I'm able
Son we gotta do this
To carry on
It's been a long
It's been a long time coming
It's been a long time since
You heard Capone N Noreaga right
A long time coming
But I knowowowww
It's like you my ***** though
A change gon' come
We starved for too long baby
Oh yes it will
Mami and Mambo
