Ooh, ah, ooh, ah, that's the sound of the men working on the chain gang.
It's been a long time coming. But I know a change is gonna come
Don't know much about history Don't know much biology.
I don't know what's up there / Beyond the sky
There been times when I thought I couldn't last for long But now I think I'm able to carry on It's been a long, been a long time coming But I know a change is gonna come, oh yes it will
It’s been too hard living, but I’m afraid to die. ‘Cause I don’t know what’s up there, beyond the sky.
