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

Ford unveiled the Mustang
Things were good in Detroit for the people there
And I could feel changes comin' on
From Atlanta Doctor King told the world he had a dream
People followed him
And Daddy said my hair was getting long

I could feel changes comin' on
People started singin' different songs, searchin' for the place where they belong
I could feel changes comin' on

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

I could feel changes comin' on
People stilll are singin' different songs
They're searchin' for the place where they belong
I can feel changes comin' on

I can feel changes comin' on I can feel changes comin' on
