Changes Comin’ On Lyrics

Alabama

Words and music by jimmy darreell, buddy cannon, and dean dillion
Long hair was not in style the first time I heard haggard on the radio, but I could feel the changes comin on.
The beatles crossed the ocean, an overnight explosion on the t.v.
My brother had to go to vietnam.
Ford unveiled the mustang.
Things were good in detroit for the people there.
And I could feel changes comin on.
From atlanta doctor king told the world he had a dream.
People followed him.
And daddy said my hair was getting long.
I could feel changes comin on.
People started singin different songs, searchin for the place where they belong.
I could feel changes comin on.
Well, Im still hooked on haggard.
But the beatles cant come back like we hoped they would.
In memphis, tennessee, the king is gone.
As I put my kids to bed, I wonder what lies ahead for them to see, cause I can feel the changes comin on.
I could feel changes comin on.
People stilll are singin different songs.
Theyre searchin for the place where they belong.
I can feel changes comin on.
I can feel changes comin on. I can feel changes comin on.
