Bailey Grey Let The Music Play
I was five years old the first time I heard that music play
From the back porch of that old farm house the music carried me away
I couldn't help myself, I just had to see who could make that guitar sing
So I followed the sound to an old oak tree, he had a guitar on his knee
He said, "Hello my name is Moses, I need someone to set me free
I made a deal with the man with the gold in his hand, he's gonna take my soul from me
You got a light in your eye and a song in your heart don't ever let that fade away
You better hold true to what's been givin' to you or you might lose come judgment day"
Chorus:
Let the music play, play on
You gotta sing like a bird on the wing until your days are done
Let the music play oh yeah
Find it in your heart feel it in your soul
Let the music play on
I remembered his words when I hit the road with a band and a show to do
One day I got a call from the Southland that he wasn't gonna make it through
So I flew through the night just to be by his side as he went to give the devil his due
And he said these words with a light in his eye just like I'm telling you
Repeat Chorus:
Let the music play, play on
You gotta sing like a bird on the wing until your days are done
Let the music play oh yeah
Find it in your heart feel it in your soul
Let the music play on
I took him by the hand and I prayed to the Lord until a light shown down from above
And I fell to my knees when I heard the angels sing
Repeat Chorus:
Let the music play, play on (play on)
You gotta sing like a bird on the wing until your days are done
Let the music play oh yeah
Find it in your heart feel it in your soul
Let the music play oh yeah
You gotta sing like a bird on the wing until your days are done
Let the music play oh yeah
Find it in your heart feel it in your soul
Let the music play on
Let the music play on
Let the music play on
