[Verse 1]
I was born by the river
In a little tent
Just like the river, I've been runnin' ever since
[Chorus]
It's been a long
Long time comin', but I know that
A change is gonna come
[Verse 2]
It's been too hard livin'
But I'm afraid to die
I don't know what's up there
Beyond the sky
[Chorus]
It's been a long
Long time comin', but I know that
A change is gonna come
Mmm, mmm
[Verse 3]
You know I had to talk to my brother
I said, "Brother, could you help me please"
Thought I ought to talk to my own mother
I said, "Mama, I'm down on my knees"
I was born by the river

It's been too hard livin'
But I'm afraid to die
I don't know what's up there
