4. SING ALONG!-------------

I was born by the river
In a little tent
oh And just like the river
I've been running ever since

It's been a long, long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Oh, yes it will

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, long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Oh yes it will

I go to the movies, and I go downtown
Somebody keep telling me,
don't hang around

It's been a long, long time coming
But I know a change gonna come
Oh yes it will

Then I go to my brother
I say brother help me please
But he winds up knocking me
Back down on my knees

There's been times that I thought
I wouldn't last for long
But now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Oh, yes it will

6. Damn!!! Was gonna start a lounge thread just for the Queens!

But ya beat me to it.

Miss LaBelle can flat hurt ya with her vocals.

Sistas, represent.

I assumed you meant Patti LaBelle.

"Love, Need, & Want" is one of my favorite songs (it's not the one she's doing now).

13. How's that for a 60 year old?

She doesn't look like she should be even close to 60, or sing like it.
