Little David Lyrics - Joni Mitchell

Play, little david 

Play little david, play 

David he would sit in some dark corner 

Seemed to melt the shadows with his eyes 

And the song that he was playing 

Was nothing less than prayin' 

And nothing more than sayin' "i'm alive." 

Won't you play, little david 

Play little david, play 

David he would send them notes a-flyin' 

Some that laughed and some that felt like tears 

He would play them fast or slowly 

Play them high or lowly 

But they always come out holy to my ear 

Won't you play, little david, play little david, play

I don't need no sunday sermon 

Need no sunday shoes 

When I hear little david playing 

I got religion through and through 

David he would send them notes a-flyin' 

Some that laughed and some that felt like tears 

He would play them fast or slowly 

Play them high or lowly 

But they always come out holy to my ear 

Won't you play, little david, play little david, play 

I don't need no sunday sermon 

Need no sunday shoes 

When I hear little david playing 

I got religion through and through

Some that laughed and some that felt like tears 

He would play them fast or slowly 

Play them high or lowly 

But they always come out holy to my ear 

Won't you play, little david, play little david, play 

Won't you play, little david, play little david, play
