Oh, now when you think the time's, babe
Take a look around
'Cause babies are dying from disease
Sleeping out on the ground People never seen the tortured eyes
From a foreign land, no
When you see somebody who's down and out Lend a helpin' hand
You better lend a helpin' hand, if you can
Lend a helpin' hand
Do it if you can Oh, every time you feed your face
Do you bow your head?
Hunger kills each and every day
Won't you share your bread? If you've ever felt the pain inside
I know you'd understand
When you see somebody who's down and out Lend a helpin' hand
You better lend a helpin' hand, if you can
Lend a helpin' hand
Won't you please Oh, every time you feed that face
Do you look around?
For somebody right in your own neighborhood
Sleepin' out on the ground If you've ever felt the pain inside
I know you'd understand
When you see somebody who's down and out Lend a helpin' hand
Why don't you lend a helpin' hand if you can?
Lend a helpin' hand
Won't you please lend a helpin' hand
