"A Change Is Gonna Come"
Sam Cooke

I was born by the river in a little tent
Oh and just like the river I've been running ever since
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

Across 110's Street (оригинал Bobby Womack)
I was the third brother of five,
Doing whatever I had to do to survive.
I'm not saying what I did was alright,
Trying to break out of the ghetto was a day to day fight.

Been down so long, getting up didn't cross my mind,
I knew there was a better way of life that I was just trying to find.

Been down so long, getting up didn't cross my mind,
I knew there was a better way of life that I was just trying to find.
You don't know what you'll do until you're put under pressure,

Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

I was the third brother of five
Doing whatever I had to do to survive
I'm not saying what I did was all right
Trying to break out of the ghetto was a day-to-day fight

All the leaves are brown
and the sky is grey
i went for a walk
on a winters day
i'd be safe and warm
if i was in LA
california dreamin
on such a winters day

California Dreamin' lyrics

All the leaves are brown and the sky is grey
I've been for a walk on a winters day
I'd be safe and warm if I was in L.A.
California dreamin', on such a winters day.

Stepped into a church I passed along the way

Everybody claims that they want the best things outta life
But not everyone, not everyone
Wanna got through the toils and strifes

Like this particular fella walks around
All day long singin' this song
Sha na lah dah dah lah dah dah dah dah

Everybody claims that they want the best things
outta life, (ha) but not everyone, not everyone
wanna got through the toils and strifes.
Like this particular fella, walks around
all day long singin' this song
sha na lah dah dah lah dah dah dah dah
Harry Hippie, lies asleep in the shade,
life don't bug him cause he

Oh, how I miss you, baby
Oh, how I miss you, baby
Listen to me

It's only been a week ago
But it seems like years
And it's getting sort of hard
To see through tears

How could I explain
This feeling that's true
Honey I can hardly stand it
I want to make love to you

When the stars fall from the heavens
And the rivers have stopped to flow
If you just stop and talk to me

I wanna dedicate this song to all the lovers tonight
And I expect that might be the whole world
Because everybody needs something or someone to love

When it's cold outside who are you holding
You know
If y'all don't mind I'd like to talk about this woman of mine
She's always complainin' ‘bout me never bein' at home

I wanna dedicate this song to all the lovers tonight
And I expect that might be the whole world
Because everybody needs something or someone to love

When it's cold outside who are you holding
You know
If y'all don't mind I'd like to talk about this woman of mine
She's always complainin' ‘bout me never bein' at home

I could try to say I’m sorry
But that won’t be quite enough
To let you know the pain that I feel
And it just won’t let up
It feels like the sky is falling
And the clouds are closing in
Where did I lose control
When did it all begin

The bravest man In the universe
Is the one who has forgiven first
he bravest man in the universe

I got a story I want to tell
Gather round me
Gather round me boys and girls

What is this? Oh yeah
What is this? Somebody tell me
Hey, what is this now? I like it
What is this? Look
What is this thing that's gotta hold on me?
What is this feeling that won't let me be?
Even with my problems I can sleep at night
'Cause it let's me know everything's gonna be alright

(Fella's I wonder would you mind if I talked to ya for a minute. You know, sometimes we have the tendency, or should I say we forget, what a woman needs every now and then. That is if you wanna keep your thing together. Listen to me now)

Do the things that keeps the smile on her face
Say the things that make her feel better everyday.
Then you got to stay on your p's and q's. If you don't, the woman you can easily lose.

Whoa oa oa I, Oh I had a love and I lost her, and no one can help me share the pain that she caused me. Ohhh, a woman's gotta have it, I believe, she's gotta know that she's needed around. When you kiss her, you gotta make her feel it, everytime boy, she wants to know that she's not walkin' on shakey ground. Ohhhh, yeah. Well, think it over. Think it over my brother. Don't take for granted the smile on her face. Check a little bit closer, you might find a tear trace. Maybe the girl might never say another word, but you gotta make sure that her voice is heard.

Girl, you're welcome...stop on by
You know i'll be here, baby
To dry your eyes, to dry your eyes
But i'm gettin' tired of being that second guy
Don't you be no fool, baby
You 'bout to lose your old standby
Is it the material things that he's givin'
Can you truly say that you're happy livin'
