Sam Cooke

 
R&B  ·  soul  ·  gospel

Sam Cooke (January 22, 1931 – December 11, 1964) was a popular and influential American gospel, R&B, soul, and pop singer, songwriter, and entrepreneur. Musicians and critics today recognize him as one of the founders of soul music, and as one of the most important singers in soul music history. He has been called "the king of soul" by many, and while some may dispute this title, Sam Cooke's legacy is an extensive one and his impact on soul music is undeniable. He had 29 Top 40 hits in the U.S. between 1957 and 1965. He is therefore seen by many as "the creator" of the genre. Major hits like "You Send Me", "Chain Gang", "Wonderful World" and "Bring It on Home to Me" are some of his most popular songs.   Wikipedia

Lyrics Sam Cooke - A Change Is Gonna Come Click to view  
I was born by the river in a little tent
And just like that river i've been running ever since
It's 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
Cos i don't know what's out there beyond the sky
It's been a long, a long time coming
But i know a change is gonna come, oh yes it will
And then i go to see my brother
And i ask him to help me please
And he just winds up knockin' me
Back down on my knees		  There were 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
Repeat verse 2
