Jeanine Tesori - Let It Sing lyrics

[Flick, sung] 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 Eeenie meenie minie 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 yourself a reason to rejoice For 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 Pa** ‘em down and help yourself 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 Those precious little, really, folks like us control But you can make your music from the simplest thing And you're the one has got to tend your soul You've got to give it room and let it, let it sing, oh You've got to give it room and let it sing You've got to let it sing, oh You got to let it sing You got to give it room And let it sing
