Letra de A change is gonna come

(Cheltenham Jazz Festival 2014)

I was born by the river in a little tent
Oh, and just like the river I´ve been running ever since

It´s been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change´s gon´ come

It´s been too 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, a long time coming
But I know a change´s gon´ come

Then I go, then I go to my brother
I say, "Brother, help me, please."
But he winds up knocking me
Right back down on my knees

Didn´t think, didn´t think I could last, I could last for long
But now I think I´m able, able to carry on

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