18 Sep 01 - 11:08 PM (#553651) Subject: Walk On Little Boy From: Barry T I'm seeking the lyrics to a wonderfully sentimental song performed by Glenn Yarbrough on his album Baby The Rain Must Fall. From what I remember, a couple of lines are as follows:
Walk on little boy
I'm after this for a lonesome Dad whose son left home this past weekend... me! |

I guess I'll just have to dust off the old credit card! 8-0 |

If you're still looking for the lyrics, I'd be happy to send them. Better to email me directly as I'm not a regular visitor. I found this thread through Google, as I, too, am looking for background info on this song. kerry@nenorthnews.com |

Walk on, little boy. Your life has only started. A world full of joy is there for you to see. Walk on, little boy. Our paths today have parted, So walk along, run along, but don't you wait for me. Walk on, little boy. We've been too long together. Don't cry, little boy. It's time I set you free. Walk on, little boy. You've seen the change of weather, So walk along, run along, but don't you wait for me. allmusic says it was written by "Gilkyson"—that's probably Terry Gilkyson. MusicStack says it was also recorded by Arthur Godfrey! |

Walk on, little boy. Our paths today have parted, So walk along, run along, but don't you wait for me. Walk on, little boy. We've been too long together. Don't cry, little boy. It's time I set you free. Walk on, little boy. You've seen the change of weather, So walk along, run along, but don't you wait for me The road of life has stretched out far behind me, With all the friends I've known from day to day, And still I bless the night you came to find me, To hold my hand until you learned the way. Walk on little boy and keep the brave world spinning. A life full of joy is there for you to see. Walk on little boy, your life is just beginning. So walk along, run along, move along, But don't you wait. Don't stop to wait. No don't you wait for me. |
