[Verse 1:]
I'm so glad that trouble don't last always.
I'm so glad that my burdens, they won't last always.

You may be down today,
but it won't last always;
I feel a change, yes, I do,
a change is on the way.

[Verse 2:]
I'm so glad that these troubles won't last always.
I'm so glad that this pain, they won't last always.

When trouble comes your way,
just lift your head up and say that;
"I feel a change, yes, I do",
"a change in on the way".

[Chorus:]
I'm so glad that trouble don't last always.
I'm so glad that my burdens won't last always.

You may be down today,
but it won't last always...

[Vamp:]
I feel a change, yes,
a change is on the way,
way, way, way.
