The Times They Are A`Changin` — текст песни (The Hollies)

Come gather round people wherever you may roam
Admit that the waters around you have grown
Admit that soon you`ll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you is a savin
Well you better start swimmin or you`ll sink like a stone
for the times they are a changing

Come writers and critics who prophesy with your pen
Keep your eyes wide the chance won`t come again
Don`t speak too soon for the wheels still in spin
And there`s no tellin who that it`s namin
For the loser now will be later to win
for the times, they are a changing

Come sailors and congressman please heed the call
Don`t stand in the doorway, don`t blacken the hall
For he who has lost is he who has all
There`s a storm outside and it`s ragin`
It`ll soon shake your windows, it`ll rattle your walls
for the times, they are a changing

It`ll soon shake your windows and it`ll rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin`

Come mothers and fathers throughout the land
Don`t criticise what you can`t understand
Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command
And your old road is rapidly agin`
So get outta here or if you can lend a hand

For the times they are a-changin`

verse 1

For the times they are a-changin`...
