Song help

Every once in awhile, I get this song in my head:

“Ohhh, child, things are going to get easier. Ooohh, child, things will be brigher. Someday…”

I really like the song, but I can’t remember who sang it and what the title is! I’d also like to know who sang the cover version of the song.

Thanks in advance! :slight_smile:

Nina Simone Oooh Child

Thanks again! :smiley:

The original version was by the Five Stairsteps.

Chris W

And Tupac sampled it for one of his songs, Keep Your Head Up in the early to mid-90’s…

Hmmm…okay. I’ll be sure to check that out sometime!
