View Lyrics

Raise your foot now that’s the way
You’ll be movin’ on today
Raise the other put it down
Now you’re headed into town
Oh boy you got left, right
Oh boy, ain’t that right

Got some years ahead to go
You’ll go free if you take it slow
Oh boy you got left, right
oh boy, ain’t that right

Two kinds of people in this world
Some say yes and some say no
Time to say which side you’re on
Eeeny meeny miney moe

Say yes and your adventure start
Not always as expected
Say no you stay apart
But you stay protected

You’ve got to give your self
A reason to rejoice
Cause the music you make
Counts for everything
Now every living soul has got a voice
You’ve got to give it room
And let it sing

My family never had too much
Made the best of every day
Ate what’s on our plates you know
Never threw a thing away
We kept our nightmares on the shelf
Our dreams were on the table
Pass ‘em down and help your self
As long as you are able

My momma told me
Son forget what might have been
Give yourself a break whatever’s happening
Don’t let your spirit, son, come closing in
You gotta give it room and let it, let it sing
You gotta give it room and let it sing
Oh you gotta lift up your voice and sing

Got some years ahead to go
You’ll go free if you take it slow
Got some years it won’t be long
You’ll be free to sing your song

Oh boy you got left, right
Oh boy

There’s precious little really folks like us controlled
But you can make your music from the simplest thing
And though no one has got to tend your soul
You’ve got to give it room and let it
Let it sing
You’ve got to give it room and let it sing

You’ve got to let it sing
You got to let it sing
You got to give it room
And let it sing
