There'll be some changes made


W. Benton Overstreet / Billy Higgins

They say don't change the old for the new
But I've found out that this will never do
When you grow old don't last long
You're here today and then tomorrow you're gone
I loved a man for many years gone by
I thought his love for me would never die
He made some changes that would never do
From now on I'm going to make some changes too
For there's a change in the weather
There's a change in the sea
So from now on there'll be in change in me
My walk will be different, my talk and my name
Nothin' about me is going to be the same
I'm goin' to change my wayof livin'
If that ain't enough
Then I'll change the way that I strut my stuff
'Cause nobody wants you when you're old and gray
There'll be some changes made today
There'll be some changes made

The say the old time things are the best
That may be very good for all the rest
But I'm goin'g let the old things be
'Cause they are certainly not suited for me
There was a time when I thought that way
That's why I'm all alone here today
Since every one these days seeks something new
From now on I'm goin' to seek some new things too
For there's a change in the fashion
Ask the femine folks
Even Jack Benny has changed jokes
I must make some changes from old to new
I must do things just the same as others do
I'm goin' to change my long, tall daddy for a little short fat
Goin' to change the number where I live at
I must have some lovin' or I'll fade away
There'll be some changes made today
There'll be some changes made today

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Eleanora Fagan, known as Billie Holiday (1915-1959), was an American singer widely regarded as one of the greatest jazz and blues vocalists of all time. Raised in Philadelphia's challenging environment, she began her musical career in Harlem's nightclubs. Her unique vocal style, characterized by a deep, sensual voice with a wide expressive range, earned her the nickname "Lady Day". Holiday was known for her emotionally charged and melancholic performances, often accompanied by sophisticated jazz arrangements. Among her most famous songs are "Strange Fruit", an anti-lynching anthem that became a powerful protest song against racial violence in the United States, and "God Bless the Child". Holiday collaborated with some of the most prominent musicians of her era, including Lester Young, Teddy Wilson, and Count Basie. Her career was marked by personal struggles and addiction, but her influence on jazz music remains profound.
