There are winds of changes blowing   Gathering leaves up in its path   And the people who are the leaves   Will remain in our hearts, with love, till eternity      King Elmore was born   So was Duke Ellington   Jelly Roll made love   Bessie Smith was created in heaven above      Robert Johnson sang the blues   Shick Webb did those things that only he could do   Charlie Christian started a new thing   And, oh my, how Billie Holiday could sing      Alan Freed rock and rolled   Joe Turner's voice was very low   B.B. King wailed, Charlie Parker cried   Louis Jordan smiled      Ray Charles moaned   Chuck Berry rock and rolled   Fats Domino made me feel good   Elvis Presley did things that no one thought he could      Then came the Beatles, Rolling Stones   Whole new thing was going on   Frank Zappa zapped   Mamas and Papas knew where it was at      They all listened to Ravi Shankar   Now that we got Jimi Hendrix   We know where we are   (And Louis Jordan smiled)      And the winds of change go on blowing, blowing   Gathering more and more leaves in its path   As time goes past      Winds of change keep on blowing   Winds of change keep on blowing   Bob Dylan sang about the winds of change   Blowing, it's all blowing, the winds of change
