Neil Diamond - Let The Little Boy Sing lyrics

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 around

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

Let the little boy sing

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

Just let the little boy sing

Got a feeling that takes you home

Let the little boy sing
