Your sons and daughters are beyond your command
Get out of the new one if you can't lend your hand
The line it is drawn, the curse it is cast
The slow one now will later be fast
And don't criticize what you can't understand
For the times they are a-changin'
Your old road is rapidly agein'
The present now will later be past
For the times they are a-changin'
Come mothers and fathers throughout the land
Then you better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone
The order is rapidly fadin'
And the first was now will later be last
If your time to you is worth savin'
Accept it that soon you'll be drenched to the bone
