Let The Boy Rock And Roll — текст песни (The Lovin` Spoonful)

I heard Mama and Papa talkin` last night
And I heard Mama say to Papa: Let that boy rock and roll

The neighbor not complainin` and the schoolboy talked twice today
You know they think you`re foolish, study or slippin` away
He don`t think about nothin` `cept the rock and roll records that play
I say it`s all right, Pa, let the boy rock and roll
He`s got a mind of his own and you know he`s got a musical soul
And he`s gotta play music and you know we really can`t say no

So Daddy, don`t you worry `bout this crazy man
Go on and do what you think you should
But Daddy, don`t you call him Little Boy Bad
When you know he could be Johnny B Good
I say it`s all right, Pa, let the boy sing his song
In his brand new boots, he needs a foot from a kick in the town
If his music is groovy, you know he really can`t go wrong

(instrumental)

So Daddy, don`t you worry `bout this crazy man
Go on and do what you think you should
But please don`t call him Little Boy Bad
When you know he could be Johnny B Good
I say it`s all right, Pa, let the boy rock and roll
He`s got a mind of his own and you know he`s got a musical soul
If the music is groovy, you know we really can`t say no
