Lyrics:

You think you've done it all
You think you've seen it all
Had your kids, nice clothes, house and family
They say I'm winding down
But I don't wear a frown
It doesn't matter much what people think of me
Then just the other day
My son called me up to say
That he and his girl had had their first child

He's a healing boy
He's a healing boy
He's a healing boy
He gives you back life's dreams
He's a healing boy
That fills your heart with joy

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Hush, hush
Hush little baby don't you cry

I have travelled the world
From Sydney to the Albert Hall
And New York City, Los Angeles, all over the place
Made friends wherever I went
The shy, the famous
Europe and beyond
All the pretty girls
Cities where I don't belong
The crazy ones to sacrifice[?]
Venus and tempests strange[?]
But no experience compares to how I feel
When I look into his face

He's the healing boy
He's the healing boy
He's the healing boy
He'll give you back life's dreams
He's a healing boy
He'll fill your heart with joy

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Hush, hush
Hush little baby don't you cry
I will sing you a lullaby

Hush, hush
Hush little baby don't you cry
I will sing you a lullaby
