Canned Heat
A change is gonna come / Leaving this town .
Live at Woodstock, August 16, 1969
A Change Is Gonna Come live at Woodstock


"A Change Is Gonna Come" was not recorded in the studio, and only two live versions exist in audio form online; the Woodstock version, and one recorded at the Fillmore West (also from 1969).[2] The Fillmore version has a lighter blues sound, as opposed to the heavier, grittier version played at Woodstock.

In the movie, during the song "A Change Is Gonna Come", you can see a man from the audience climbing on stage but instead of kicking him off, singer Bob Hite shares a cigarette with him.

Woodstock Fandom
I said I believe…
yeah folks a change sure is gonna come

I said I believe…
yeah people a change… will surely come

We'll all have a good peace of mind
Lord, our freedom will surely surely come

Well now, I believe in the morning
I believe I'll go on back home

Well, now I believe I'm gonna get up in the morning
yeah, people ah people, I'm gonna go back home

Well, now I gotta find my little mama
You know I gotta have some ridin' to be done

Well… Standin’ at the crossroads
my friends began to yell and shout

Well, I'm standin’ down at the crossroads
Lord I'm standin’ all by myself

Well, as long as I've got myself a friend
Lord I can't ask for much
Yeah…

Well, when you've got yourself a good friend
You are the luckiest man on earth

I say you got yourself a good friend
yeah now do know you're the luckiest man on earth

‘cause you've got love in your heart
Lord that's worth all its weight in gold

Ohhh we like to go down

Well, what you gonna do
when your troubles sure do get like mine

I said what you' gonna do baby
yeah child when your troubles sure do get like mine

Well, now you take yourself a mouth full of sugar
you drink yourself a good old bottle of turpentine

Well I'm leavin’ here walking girl
cause runnin’s most too slow

I said ‘m leavin here this town
Lord cause runnin's most too slow

Well, I gotta find my little rider,
you know it's down the road I go

Well, now I'm leavin' this town
Lord I won't be back for long

Well, now I'm leavin' this town
Lord people I won't be back… for long

Well, now I got myself a brand of loving
child don't you know it's sure can not be told

Note personali
In questa traccia che gia’ nel titolo ricorda “The Times They Are a -Changin’ “ di Bob Dylan ( 1964 ) e “ A Change Is Gonna Come “ di Sam Cooke ( 1964 ) confluiscono molti temi noti alla controcultura americana degli aa. ’60. Sublimati poi nel lungo weekend di meta’ Agosto 1969 a Woodstock.
Il desiderio ,la speranza e quasi certezza di un cambiamento sociale , la pace nelle menti e la liberta’ nell’agire, il ritorno alle origini , l’amore , la felicita’ nell’amicizia, la volonta’ di evasione nel viaggio lasciando la realta’ quotidiana non piu’ sostenibile dell’ “ establishment “. Un riferimento anche al rifugio nell’assumere sostanze chimiche come supporto terapeutico v. LSD ( “sugar “ in slang ) e l’uso improprio della trementina.
