I was born by a river, oh my
In this little old town
Just like this river
I've been running ever since
It's been alone
Lord, I'm coming but I know, but I know
That changes gotta come, now
Ou yes it is, my oh my oh my oh my
It's been too hard livin', oh my
And I'm afraid to die
I don't know what's up there
Beyond the clouds
It's been alone
Lord I'm coming but I know, but I know
That changes gotta come
Oh yes it is, my oh my oh my
There's a time
I will go to my brother, oh my
I would ask my brother
Will you help me please, oh now oh now
He turned me down
And then I asked my little mother, oh my oh
I said mother, I said mother
I'm down on my knees
It's been time that I go
Lord it's too late
Very long, oh now oh
Somehow I thought I was still able
To try to carry on
It's been alone
Lord I'm coming but I know
That changes gonna come
Oh yes it is
Huh, just like I said
I went to my little baby brother, oh my, my little brother
I asked my brother, brother help me please, oh now
He turned me down
And then I go to my little mother, my dear mother, oh now, huh
I said mother, I said mother I'm down on my knees
But there was a time that I go
Lord it's too late
So very long, oh my oh
Somehow I thought I was still able
To try to carry on
It's been alone
Lord I'm coming but I know, but I know
That changes gotta come, ou
It's been so long, It's been so long
A little too long
But changes gotta come
So tired, so tired of suffering
Standing by myself
Has given up a home
But changes gotta
The lyrics A CHANGE IS GONNA COME of OTIS REDDING is also present in the album Otis blue (1966)
Otis Ray Redding Jr. (1941-1967) è stato un cantante statunitense di soul, considerato uno dei più influenti artisti del genere. Nato a Dawson, Georgia, Redding iniziò la sua carriera musicale suonando in chiese e locali notturni del sud degli Stati Uniti. Nel 1962 firmò con la Stax Records, dove ottenne il successo con brani come "Respect" (cover di Aretha Franklin) e "Fa-Fa-Fa-Fa-Fine". Il suo stile vocale potente e emotivo, caratterizzato da un'ampia gamma e una straordinaria capacità di interpretazione, lo rese uno dei cantanti soul più amati. Tra i suoi brani più celebri figurano "I've Been Loving You Too Long", "Try a Little Tenderness" e il postumo successo mondiale "(Sittin' on) the Dock of the Bay". La sua tragica morte in un incidente aereo nel 1967, all'età di soli 26 anni, segnò la fine di una carriera promettente e lasciò un vuoto nel panorama musicale. Redding è ricordato come un artista geniale e innovativo che ha contribuito a definire lo stile del soul moderno.
