The Times They Are a Changin'

The Times They Are a Changin' - The Seekers

Written by：Bob Dylan

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 prophecy 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

For the loser now will be later to win

For the times they are a changing

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 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

For 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
