| Just a little hand can be a great big help
|
| It can make a big difference
|
| And there’s a better plan than to do this ourselves
|
| There is another point of reference and
|
| I’ve never known an island
|
| And I’ve never seen it work that way
|
| I’ve come to understand
|
| We do the best we can
|
| But everybody needs a little hand
|
| Just and little hand can go a long long way
|
| And there’s no shame in askin' and yes
|
| No matter what they do
|
| Or what they say
|
| You can’t live without a little tenderness
|
| There’s always gifts of kindness
|
| And there’s always little acts of bravery
|
| I’ve come to understand
|
| We do the best we can
|
| But everybody needs a little hand
|
| So call if your ever alone or down
|
| And you need someone to be around
|
| Just call
|
| Just a little hand can be a great big help
|
| It can make all the difference
|
| And there’s no reason to doubt
|
| There is no story or fiction here, and
|
| I’ve never known an island, and
|
| I’ve never seen it work that way
|
| I’ve come to understand
|
| We do the best we can
|
| But everybody needs a little hand
|
| So call if your ever alone or down
|
| And you need someone to be around
|
| I’ve come to understand
|
| We do the best we can
