There'll Be Some Changes Made
Julie London Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There'll be a change in the weather;
And a change in the sea,
From now on there'll be a change in me;
My walk will be different, my talk and my name --
Nothin' about me gonna be the same.
I'm gonna change my way of livin',
And if that ain't enough,
I'm gonna change the way I strut my stuff.
Nobody wants you when you're old and gray --
There'll be some changes made today,
There'll be some changes made.

My air will be different my hair and my face
you'll be surprised at all the things I replace
I'm gonna change my whole psychology
and daddy that ain't all
I'll even find new ways to have myself a ball
You'll find your baby's always fit





there'll be some changed made today
there'll be some changes made
