[FLICK]
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
Whoa 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
Whoa 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;
Eeny, meeny, miny, moe
Say yes, and your adventures start
Not always as expected;
Say no, you stay apart
But you stay protected

You got to give yourself a reason to rejoice
For the music you make counts for everything
Now every livin' soul has got a voice –
You 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 a shelf
Our dreams were on the table
Pass 'em down, 'n' help yourself
As long as you are able

My mama told me, son, forget what might have been
Give yourself a break, whatever's happening
Don't let your spirit, son, come closin' in –
You got to give it room, and let it, let it sing
You got to give it room, and let it sing
You got to 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
And you'll be free to sing your song
Whoa boy, you got left, right?
Oh boy…

There's 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 got to give it room, and let it, let it sing
You got to give it room, and let it sing
You got to let it sing
You got to let it sing
You got to give it room, and let it sing
