Taj Mahal

Henry Saint Clair Fredericks (born May 17, 1942), who uses the stage name Taj Mahal, is an American Grammy Award winning blues musician. He often incorporates elements of world music into his music. A self-taught singer-songwriter and film composer who plays the guitar, banjo and harmonica (among many other instruments), Mahal has done much to reshape the definition and scope of blues music over the course of his almost 50 year career by fusing it with nontraditional forms, including sounds from the Caribbean, Africa and the South Pacific. more »

Me and my friends
We're all misunderstood
They say we stand for nothing 
And there's no way we ever could
Now we see everything that's going wrong
With the world and those who lead it
We just feel like we don't have the means
To rise above and beat it

So we keep on waiting, yeah
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting, yeah
Waiting on the world to change

Hard to beat the system
When we're standing at a distance
So we keep on waiting, yeah
Waiting on the world to change

Now if we had the power
To bring our neighbors home from war
They would have never missed a Christmas
No more ribbons on their door
And when you trust your television
What you get is what you got
'Cause when they own the information, oh
They can bend it all they want

That's why we're waiting, yeah
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting, yeah
Waiting on the world to change

Not that we don't care
We just know that the fight ain't fair
So we keep on waiting, yeah
Waiting on the world to change

And we're still waiting, yeah
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting, yeah
Waiting on the world to change

One day the younger generation
Is gonna rule the population
So we keep on waiting, yeah
Waiting on the world to change
Keep on waiting, yeah
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change
