That Can’t Be Lyrics by Tonya Pinkins, Chandra Wilson, Chuck Cooper, Veanne Cox

Caroline, or Change (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

2004

[CAROLINE & DOTTY]
That can't be
[THE BUS]
Some man kill him
Dead in Dallas
[ROSE]
Noah, darling, look
I found change
In your pants pockets again
[THE BUS]
News come slow here
Change come slow
Light gone out now, darkness come
Step on board
Time for departing
[ROSE]
Noah, please come here
[THE BUS]
Into the nighttime
Toward what lies ahead
[ROSE]
I need to speak to you
