Times They Are A Changing Lyrics - Nina Simone

(1963) bob dylan 

Come gather 'round people 

Wherever you roam 

And admit that the waters 

Around you have grown 

And accept it that soon 

You'll be drenched to the bone. 

If your time to you 

Is worth savin' 

Then you better start swimmin' 

Or you'll sink like a stone 

For the times they are a-changin'.

Come writers and critics 

Who prophesize with your pen 

And keep your eyes wide 

The chance won't come again 

And don't speak too soon 

For the wheel's still in spin 

And there's no tellin' who 

That it's namin'. 

For the loser now 

Will be later to win 

For the times they are a-changin'. 

Come senators, congressmen 

Please heed the call 

Don't stand in the doorway 

Don't block up the hall 

For he that gets hurt 

Will be he who has stalled 

Photos 

There's a battle outside 

And it is ragin'. 

It'll soon shake your windows 

And rattle your walls 

For the times they are a-changin'. 

Come mothers and fathers 

Throughout the land 

And don't criticize 

What you can't understand 

Your sons and your daughters 

Are beyond your command 

Your old road is 

Rapidly agin'. 

Please get out of the new one 

If you can't lend your hand 

For the times they are a-changin'. 

The line it is drawn 

The curse it is cast 

The slow one now 

Will later be fast 

As the present now 

Will later be past 

The order is 

Rapidly fadin'. 

And the first one now 

Will later be last 

For the times they are a-changin'.
