Long Time Coming Songtext / Lyric

I was born by the river, in a little tent
Just like the river, I've been runnin' ever since It's been a long time coming
But I know change gonna come, oh yes it will It's been too hard living, but I'm afraid to die
'Cause I don't know what's up there in the sky

It's been a long time coming
But I know change gonna come

I go the movies and I go downtown
Somebody keep telling mee, don't
Don't hang around

Then I go to my brother and I say brother help me please
But he rise up knocking me back on my knees
There's been times that I thought I would not last for long
Now I think I may grow to carrie on

It's been a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
