{Verse 1}
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 tv.
My brother had to go to Vietnam.
{Verse 2}
Ford unveiled the Mustang.
Things looked good in Detroit for the people there.
And I could feel the changes comin' on.
From Atlanta Doctor King
told the world he had a dream. People followed him.
And Daddy said my hair was gettin' long.
{Chorus-Variation 1}
I could feel changes comin' on.
People started singin' different songs,
searchin' for the place where they belong.
I could feel changes comin' on.
{Bridge}
{Verse 3}
Well, I'm still hooked on Haggard.
But the Beatles can't 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.
{Chorus-Variation 2}
I can feel changes comin' on.
People still are singin' different songs,
They're searchin' for the place where they belong.
I can feel changes comin' on.
{Repeat and Fade}
I can feel changes comin' on.
