A Change Is Gonna Come Lyrics - Al Green

[Intro] 

You look good out there, baby 

I was born by the river in a little tent 

Oh, just like the river, I been running ever since 

It's been a long, a long time coming 

But I know a change is gonna come 

Oh, yes it will, look it here 

It's been too hard living and I'm afraid to die 

Look it here 

'cause I don't know what's up there beyond the sky 

It's been a long 

I wish I could come out there where you are baby 

A long time coming but I know 

Look it here 

A change is gonna come, oh yes it will 

Look it here
