The Time They Are A-Changin' - Paul Simon

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 
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 tellin' who that it's namin' 
'Cause 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 doorways 
Don't block up the hall 
For he that gets hurt 
Will be he that has stalled 
The battle outside ragin' 
Will soon shake your windows 
And rattle your walls 
For the times they are a-changin' 

Come mothers and fathers 
All over 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 agin' 
Please get out of the new one 
If you can't lend your hand 
For the times they are a-changin' 

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