Sam and the coming change

I was born by a 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

It's been too hard living
but I'm afraid to die
Cause I don't know what's up there
beyond the sky

It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come,
oh yes it will

I go to the movie and I go downtown
somebody keep telling me
don't hang around

It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come,
oh yes it will

Then I go to my brother
And I say brother help me please
But he winds up knockin' me
Back down on my knees

Ohhhhhhhhh.....

There been times that I thought
I couldn't last for long
But now I think I'm able
to carry on

It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come,
oh yes it will

by Sam Cooke

Politics as never before..

It's interesting to compare the current situation in the States with the status quo in Europe. We often refer to America as far behind when it comes to civil rights for minorities such as black citizens.

When will Europe inaugurate a black president?
