Jess & Matt - The Times They Are A-Changin' Lyrics

Come gather 'round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'

Come writers and critics
Prophesize with your pen
And keep your eyes wide
The chance won't come again
And don't speak too soon
For the wheel's 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-changin'

Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There's a battle outside and it's ragin'
It'll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'

Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
Don't criticize
What you don't understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
And your old road is rapidly agin'
Please get off the new one
If you can't lend a hand
For the times they are a-changin'
For the times they are a-changin'
For the times they are a-changin'

The line it is drawn
And the curse it is cast
The slow one now
Will later be fast
As the present now
Will later be past
And the order is rapidly fadin'
And the first one now
Will later be last
For the times they are a-changin'
(For the times) they are changin'
(For the times) they are changin'
(For the times) they are changin'
(For the times) they are changin'
Changin', changin', changin', changin'
Changin', changin', changin'
