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
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 Explain Request ×
