The Times They Are A-Changin'

The line, it is drawn, the curse, it is cast
Your old road is rapidly agin'

And the first one now will later be last

Then you better start swimmin', you could sink like a stone
The present now will later be past
If your time to you is worth savin'
And don't criticize what you can't understand
For the times, they are a-changin'
For the times, they are a-changin'

Come mothers and fathers throughout the land

So get out of the new one if you can't lend your hand

For the times, they are a-changin'
The slow one now will later be fast
Accept it soon, you'll be drenched to the bone
The order is rapidly fadin'
Your sons and your daughters, beyond your command
