The Times They Are A-Changin' - The Byrds

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 savin'

Then you better start swimming

Or you'll sink like a stone

For the times they are a-changin

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 fadin'

And the first one now

Will later be last

For the times they are a-changin'

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 agin'

Please get out of the new one

If you can't lend your hand

For the times they are a changin'
