Lend A Hand |
| Blackbird sitting on an open gate |
| Cattle out walking the plains |
| West winds blowing the waist-high wheat |
| Sideways in the rain |
| Bloodhounds spent, get no trail |
| There ain’t no sign of man |
| Want to get ourselves on the straight and the narrow |
| Gonna need a better plan |
| Roll your sleeves, hold back the dam |
| Fill these bags with sand |
| Every young boy, woman, and every man |
| Has got to lend a hand |
| It ain’t no wives tale, it ain’t no fable |
| Payback is coming around |
| The hourglass is sitting there on the table |
| Filled on both sides now |
| The work is potluck, grab a hatchet |
| Wear any glove that fits |
| You can’t take a punch then you might as well quit |
| It won’t matter how hard you hit |
| Roll up your sleeves, shovel in hand |
| Rise up and learn how to stand |
| You’re a toothless woman or a one-armed man |
| You too got to lend a hand |
| We’re losing daylight, you’ve got to be swift |
| You ain’t got brains than you can lift |
| Be an optimist and see the glass half full |
| You don’t got to like what you’ve got in it When our father gets home he’s gonna turn on the lights |
| We’re up to our thoats in knives |
| His eyes will flash and his teeth will grind |
| He’ll say «You're on your own, look alive!» |
| Suppose I quit you, my wayward tribe |
| Whatever would you do? |
| Take me to Hades or take me to Memphis |
| Just don’t take me for one of you |
| Roll your sleeves up, the fat lady sang |
| Grab your buckets and cans |
| Come over the border, your papers in order |
| You too got to lend a hand |
| Roll your sleeves up, hold back the dam |
| Fill these bags with sand |
| Every young boy, woman, every tired old man |
| You too got to lend a hand |
