Lyrics:

Theres an old friendThat I once heard saySomething that touched my heartAnd it began this wayI was born by the riv
erIn a little tentAnd just like the riverIve been runnin ever sinceHe said its been a long time cominBut I know my change
is gonna comeOh yeahHe said its been too hard livinBut Im afraid to dieI might not be if I knewWhat was up there beyond t
he skyIts been a long, a long time cominBut I know my change has got to comeOh yeahI went, I went to my brotherAnd I aske
d him, ''BrotherCould you help me, please?''He said, ''Good sisterId like to but Im not able''And when I, when I looked aro
undI was right back downDown on my bended kneesYes I was, ohThereve been times that I thoughtI thought that I wouldnt las
t for longBut somehow right now I believeThat Im able, Im able to carry onI tell you that its been alongAnd oh its been an
uphill journeyAll the wayBut I know, I know, I knowI know my change is gonna comeSometimes I had to cry all night longYes
I didSometimes I had to give up rightFor what I knew was wrongYes its been an uphill journeyIts sures been a long way comin
Yes it hasIts been real hardEvery step of the wayBut I believe, I believeThis evenin my change is comeYeah I tell you tha
tMy change is come..
