It's Been A Long Time Coming Lyrics

I was born by the river In a little tent And just like the river I've been running ever since
It's been a long, long time coming But I know a change gonna come Oh, yes it is
It's been too hard living But I'm afraid to die I don't know what's up there beyond the sky
It's been a long, long time coming [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/its-been-a-long-time-coming-lyrics-sam-cooke.html ] But I know a change gonna come Oh yes it will
Then I go to my brother I say brother help me please But he winds up knocking me Back down on my knees
There's been times that I thought I wouldn't last for long But now I think I'm able to carry on It's been a long, long time coming But I know a change is gonna come Oh, yes it will
