The Times They Are A Changin'

歌詞

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 saving Then you better start swimming or you'll sink like a stone For the times they are a-changing Come writers and critics who 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 telling who that it's naming 'Cause the loser now will be later to win For the times they are a-changing Come senators, congressmen, please head 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 raging It'll soon shake your windows and rattle your walls For the times they are a-changing Come mothers and fathers throughout the land And don't criticize what you can't understand Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command Your old road is rapidly aging Please get out of the new one if you can't lend your hand Oh the times they are a-changing The line it is drawn, the curse it is cast The slow one now will later be fast As the present now will later be past The order is rapidly fading And the first one now will later be last For the times they are a-changing For the times they are a-changing
