《A Change Is Gonna Come》好运终将来临

 最伟大的灵魂歌曲之一。

山姆·库克(Sam　Cooke)的吉他手鲍比·沃麦克(Bobby　Womack)回忆起他第一次听到这首歌的经历：“一天晚上，他打电话叫我过去听他新写的歌，他家里有一大堆音箱，于是他唱给我听了，我骨头都在打颤，我跟他说：‘山姆，这首歌能听到人想死。’”山姆后来承认，这是他写的最艰难的一首歌。

《A Change Is Gonna Come》好运终将来临

演唱：山姆·库克 Sam Cooke 

I was born by the river
In a little tent
And just like the river
I've been running ever since
It's been a long,a long time coming
But I know, a change is gonna come
Oh, yes it will
我出生在河边
一顶小小的帐篷里
从那以后就像是河流
我随波逐流
已经很多年过去了
但我确信，好运终将来临
喔，是的，好运终将来临

It's been too hard living
But I'm afraid to die
I don't know what's up there
Beyond the sky
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know, a change is gonna come
Oh, yes it will
一直以来生活太过艰难
我担心自己会死去
不知道在远处的天边
发生了什么
已经很多年过去了
但我确信，好运终将来临
喔，是的，好运终将来临

I go to the movie
And I go downtown
Somebody keep telling me
Don't you hang around
It's been a long,a long time coming
But I know, a change is gonna come
Oh, yes it will
我去看电影
我到城市闯荡
有人告诉我
你不要游手好闲
已经很多年过去了
但我确信，好运终将来临
喔，是的，好运终将来临

Then I go to my brother
I say "brother help me please"
But he just winds up knocking me
Back down on my knees, well
于是我投奔我的兄弟
对他说，"兄弟，请救救我"
但他把我捆起来打
背对他跪在地上，唉

There were times that I thought
I couldn't make it alone
But now I'm able, I'm able
To carry on
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know, a change is gonna come
Oh, yes it will
有几次我想
我无法独自走完人生
但现在我能够，我能够
继续坚持下去
已经很多年过去了
但我确信，好运终将来临
喔，是的，好运终将来临
