try a little kindness

if you see your brother standing by the road

with a heavy load from the seeds he sowed

and if you see your sister falling by the way

just stop and say you're goin' the wrong way

you've got to try a little kindness

show a little kindness

shine your light for everyone to see

and if you'll try a little kindness you'll overlook the blindness

of the narrow minded people on the narrow minded streets

don't walk around the down and out

lend a helping hand instead of doubt

and the kindness that you show every day

it will help someone along their way

you've got to try a little kindness

show a little kindness

shine your light for everyone to see

and if you'll try a little kindness you'll overlook the blindness

of the narrow minded people on the narrow minded streets

you've got to try a little kindness

show a little kindness

shine your light for everyone to see

and if you'll try a little kindness you'll overlook the blindness

of the narrow minded people on the narrow minded streets.
