James, Leela - A Change Is Gonna Come Lyrics
I was born by the river
In a little tent
And gorgeous like the river
I've been running, ever since
A long time coming
But I, I know a change gonna come
Owh yes it will
It's been too hard living
But I am afraid to die
Cause I don't know what's up there
Beyond the sky
It's been a long
But I, I know a change gonna come
Owh yes it will
There's been times that I thought
I wouldn't last for long
But somehow
I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long
A long time coming
But I know, I know a change is gonna come
Owh yes you will
And then I go to my mother
I said mother could you help me please?
She said: I'd like to, I really would
But I'm just not able
Then I looked around
And I was right back down
Down on my knees
There's been times that I thought
I wouldn't last for long
But somehow
I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long
A long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Owh yes you will

Here after listening to Greta Van Fleet... love both versions❤
Leela James Version the only that I prefer over the original artist and writer of the song. All due respect to Sam Cooke.
When I saw the video for Music, fell in love with her voice. She's great!
shes a definite old soul in her music, she makes you deeply feel her words & sounds ! going to see her At Soul Kitchen in mobile alabama this month >>>cant wait !!
Sonya girl please spot on.x
Leela, you make me feel it!... Love your cover to me its a masterpiece.
Oops not Donny's daughter buy Etta Granddaughter. She is good no matter who she is related to. I started this song over six times.
Damn she is her father. Daughter. Donny Hathaway
💛💛💛💛💛💛🙏🙏🙏🙏
My favorite female vocalist. So powerful and beautiful. Love me some Leela
A precious rendition
Beautiful rendition, one of my favorite songs, originally by the great Sam Cooke. Great my sister.
Why is it bassboosting her face
I was always in love with the Sam Cooke version. This, though, my God . . .
solo, the group, has a nice version..
Love, love this rendition!!!!!
Beautiful
im just a guy from jersey but your voice is angle
In fact she sings deep from heart.
LOVE❤LOVE❤LOVE
She Rocks!!!!!!!!
She sings of pain and passion in a way that VERY FEW FEMALES TODAY CAN SING!! She takes your soul to the deepest and darkest places, only to draw you back in time and time again. She's young but sings of the ole days when love was REAL. I'm 50 and this song gives me the chills when she sings it. It makes me stand up out my seat with my Jenny and sing out loud lol. To all keep enjoying great music peace.✌🤘
SANG GURL SANG!!!!!!!
Sam Cooke would be so proud of her. Leela James put her stamp on this classic. I'm loving this version so much. I can hear the soulful all over this song.
geeft me een relaxed gevoel, haar lied te horen zingen,
