Let The Little Boy Sing lyrics

Artist  : Neil Diamond 
Song : Let The Little Boy Sing
 


Take you back to a cotton field
In the heart
of Lousiana
Little boy about nine years
old
Sings a song in the heat of the
day
Mama cried when her little boy sang
She
knew he could be someone special
Mama cried
'cause the way that it was
He would only be
wasted away

Then his mama would
pray
And every night she would say
Help my
boy began
Take the lord by the hand

Let
the little boy sing
Got a feeling that takes
you home
Got a melody of his own
Let the
little boy sing

Let the little boy
try
Let the little boy buy
He can take you
along
On the wings of his song
Let the
little boy fly

Take you back to New
Orleans
Where the music wakes up with the
city
To the bars by the railroad cars
On
the neon side of town
Sang a song on the city
streets
And people began to listen
Southern
boy, sing your southern song
Take it like no
one aound

Nobody walked by
Without
feelin' high
Never heard it before
They'd
be calling for more

Let the little boy
sing
Got a melody of his own
Got a feeling
that takes you home
Let the little boy
sing
And let the little boy fly
Let the
little boy try
He can take you along
On the
wings of his song
Let the little boy
fly

Let him take you away

(Ladies
and gentlemen
Super?? are proud to
introduce
The little boy with a soul of a
star)

Let the little boy sing
Got a
melody of his own
Got a feeling that takes you
home
Let the little boy sing
Let the little
boy try
Let the little boy buy
He can take
you along
On the wings of his song
Let the
little boy fly
