Play Your Song Lyrics

On the corner of Main and Vine

A man and his dog passing time

Strumming strings on an old guitar

Singing songs of life and scars

His hat's on the ground, worn and frayed

Begging for coins, just trying to get paid

His music echoes through the street

But only the wind keeps the beat

Then a stranger passing by

Hears the notes that reach the sky

Opens his wallet, with a smile so kind

Drops a fifty, leaves the man behind

The musician's eyes light up with hope

A lifeline thrown, a way to cope

He takes that money, with a grateful nod

And dreams of more than this old facade

The kindness of strangers, like a light in the dark

Can turn a simple tune, into a spark

Never give up (never give up)

Keep holding on (keep holdin')

When the road is rough

just play your song

Never give up (never give up)

Keep holding on (keep holdin')

When the road is rough, just play your song

He sends a tape to the local DJ

Hoping his songs will find their way

The DJ listens, hears the soul

Decides to give it a chance on the roll

The radio waves carry his sound

Through the town, it's all around

People stop, they turn the dial

To hear the man who's walked a mile

The local bar calls him to play

Filling seats every night and day

From corner streets to center stage

His music's now the town's new rage

He rose from nothing, found his way

Now the world knows his name today

But he remembers that fateful time

When a stranger helped him climb

Never give up (never give up)

Keep holding on (keep holdin')

When the road is rough

just play your song

Never give up (never give up)

Keep holding on (keep holdin')

When the road is rough, just play your song

What started with a single song

Grew into something that's lifelong

From a simple tip to fame's embrace

Now his name's in every place

On the corner of Main and Vine

He used to sit, just passing time

Now he stands tall, guitar in hand

The music that saved him now saves the land

Never give up (never give up)

Keep holding on (keep holdin')

When the road is rough

just play your song

Never give up (never give up)

Keep holding on (keep holdin')

When the road is rough, just play your song

Never give up (never give up)

Keep holding on (keep holdin')

When the road is rough

just play your song

Never give up (never give up)

Keep holding on (keep holdin')

When the road is rough, just play your song
