A Child In Everyone's Heart

Phil Keaggy


Just a little boy in the town, town, town 
Just a little boy with a frown, frown, frown. 
In the afternoons he goes down, down, down 
To the lonely room near the lost and found department. 

There's a little boy in every man's heart 
Crying out, trying out. 
As he rushes in to hear the band start, 
So alone in the crowd, in the crowd. 

Just a little girl on her daddy's knee, 
Just remember when she was one, two, three. 
In a little while she'll want to be free, 
And your little girl will be seventeen tomorrow. 

There's a little girl in every daddy's heart, 
Dreaming eyes, scheming eyes. 
When she sings for you remember your part, 
Listen up when she cries, when she sighs. 

There's a little child in everyone's heart, 
Needing love, needing love. 
There's a little child in everyone's heart, 
Needing love, needing love.
