The Lovin' Spoonful - Let The Boy Rock And Roll Lyrics
I heard Mama and Papa talkin' last nightAnd I heard Mama say to Papa: Let that boy rock and rollThe neighbor not complainin' and the schoolboy talked twice todayYou know they think you're foolish, study or slippin' awayHe don't think about nothin' 'cept the rock and roll records that playI say it's all right, Pa, let the boy rock and rollHe's got a mind of his own and you know he's got a musical soulAnd he's gotta play music and you know we really can't say noSo Daddy, don't you worry 'bout this crazy manGo on and do what you think you shouldBut Daddy, don't you call him Little Boy BadWhen you know he could be Johnny B GoodI say it's all right, Pa, let the boy sing his songIn his brand new boots, he needs a foot from a kick in the townIf his music is groovy, you know he really can't go wrong(instrumental)So Daddy, don't you worry 'bout this crazy manGo on and do what you think you shouldBut please don't call him Little Boy BadWhen you know he could be Johnny B GoodI say it's all right, Pa, let the boy rock and rollHe's got a mind of his own and you know he's got a musical soulIf the music is groovy, you know we really can't say no
