[Chorus]
Everybody needs a helping hand
Take a look at your fellow man
And tell me what can I do today
'Cause everybody needs a helping out
If that ain't what it's all about
Tell me what
What can I do
What can I do today
[Verse 1]
We've all seen trouble from time to time
There is a mountain ahead
I've got no strength to climb, hey
If you're feeling that you're strong
Reach out to me
I hope this journey won't take long
But won't you please
Have mercy
[Chorus]
Everybody needs a helping hand
Take a look at your fellow man
And tell me what can I do today
'Cause everybody needs a helping out
If that ain't what it's all about
Tell me what
What can I do
What can I do today
What can I do today
[Verse 2]
I'm talking 'bout the soul all alone
Needing the daily bread
Someplace to lay his head, yeah, hey
And I'm talking about the neighbor on your street
Won't you look him in the eye
Take time to speak
That's mercy, yeah
[Chorus]
'Cause everybody needs a helping hand
Take a look at your fellow man
And tell me what can I do today (what can I do today)
'Cause everybody needs a helping out
If that ain't what it's all about
Tell me what
What can I do
What can I do
[Bridge]
Love one another
Sister and brother
Love is the only way, hey
Everybody needs a helping hand
Take a look at your fellow man
And tell me what can I do today (what can I do today)
'Cause everybody needs a helping out
If that ain't what it's all about
Tell me what, what can I do
What can I do today
[Chorus]
Everybody needs a helping hand
Take a look at your fellow man
And tell me what can I do today (what can I do today)
'Cause everybody needs a helping out
If that ain't what it's all about, tell me
What, what can I do today
[Chorus]
Everybody needs a helping hand
Take a look at your fellow man
And tell me what can I do today (what can I do today)
'Cause everybody needs a helping out
If that ain't what it's all about
Tell me what, what can I do
What can I do today
What can I do today
Everybody needs a helpin', helpin'
Everybody needs a helping hand
Everybody needs a helpin', helpin'
Everybody needs a helping hand
Everybody needs a helping hand
Everybody needs it
Everybody needs it
Oh, everybody needs it
Everybody needs it
Everybody needs a helping hand
Oh, everybody needs it, oh, yeah, oh, everybody needs it
Oh, yeah, everybody needs a helping hand
Everybody needs it, oh, everybody needs it
Everybody needs a helping hand
Everybody needs it
