Look out, Ma Look out, Pa Look at that horizon Somethin's out there kickin' up dust Oh, it's comin' fast Look out, Sister Look out, Brother River's gonna be risin' Somethin' we've been waiting for Oh, it's here at last It's been a long time comin' It's been a long time gone It's been a long time comin' It's been a long time gone Let's all sing Let's all dance Stomp our feet in that red clay Come on out of those old brown fields Watch 'em turn to gold It's been a long time comin' It's been a long time gone It's been a long time comin' It's been a long time gone
