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 swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone

For the times they are a-changin'

Come writers and critics

Who prophesize 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 tellin' who
That it's namin'

For the loser now
Will be later to win
For the times they are a-changin'

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 is ragin'

It'll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls

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'

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'
