Let The Big Girl Play

from Praying For The World (2016) by Dan Frechette

/

lyrics

Sometimes I take a stroll
down by the old redwood trees
and I hear the most beautiful sound
resounding in the breeze
I gather up my courage
to pull out my guitar and play
do you mind if I join along
and I can let the big girl play?

I haven't had her for very long
and to other eyes she's small
but in matters of the heartstrings
she ain't so small at all
and the people when they see me
they often wish me to sit and stay
and take her from the case and say
won't you let the big girl play?

(Chorus)
Let the big girl play
let her strings sing hollow and sweet
hear all the birds start singing along
and the sweethearts shuffle their feet
these days there's not enough music
sometimes we lose our way
so let me pull out my old guitar
and let the big girl play

When I am old and I am nearing my early grave
I'll think back to times when I took a chance and was so brave
and I asked that beautiful lady if I could join her song that day
she looked at me and smiled and said won't you let the big girl play?

(Chorus)
