The Times They Are A-Changin' (Live in Moscow & Leningrad, Russia - July/August 1987) - Billy Joel

Written by：Bob Dylan/Jim Boyer/Brian Ruggles

Come gather 'round people

Wherever you roam

And admit that the waters around you have grown

Accept 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 prophecise with your pen

And keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again

And don't speak too soon for the wheels still in spin

And there's no tellin' now where it's namin'

For the loser now will be later to win

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

Your old road is rapidly agein'

So 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 last

As the present now will later be past

The order is rapidly fadin'

And the first one now will later be last

For the times they are a changin'
