"It's Been A Long Time Coming" lyrics

For as long as I can remember
It's been struggle and worry every day
It's been a long time coming
I said, it's been such a long time coming
But good things are going to come my way

I work so hard and I put in all my hours
Just to make myself a few dollars every day
It's been such a long time coming
Baby, it's been such a long time coming
But good things are going to come my way

Never met a girl who'll love me
I've spent so many lonely nights
But then one day girl, you came along
And every little thing is going to be alright

I try so hard to make you feel so happy
I'm going to do every little thing to make you stay, to make you stay
Oh, baby, it's been such a long time coming
I never thought it would come, but it's been such a long time coming
And good things, oh let me tell you that these good little things
Good things are going to come my way

Oh, baby, yes good little things are going to come my way
