[ Featuring Theresa Houston ]
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 left 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
Those precious little (can't understand the rest of this line)
You can make your music from the simplest things
And though no 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
