If you see your brother standing by the roadWith a heavy load from the seeds he sowedAnd if you see your sister falling by the wayJust stop and say, "You're going the wrong way"
You've got to try a little kindnessYes, show a little kindnessJust shine your light for everyone to seeAnd if you try a little kindnessThen you'll overlook the blindnessOf narrow-minded people on the narrow-minded streets
Don't walk around the down and outLend a helping hand instead of doubtAnd the kindness that you show every dayWill help someone along their way
You got to try a little kindnessYes, show a little kindnessJust shine your light for everyone to seeAnd if you try a little kindnessThen you'll overlook the blindnessOf narrow-minded people on the narrow-minded streets
You got to try a little kindnessYes, show a little kindnessJust shine your light for everyone to seeAnd if you try a little kindnessThen you'll overlook the blindnessOf narrow-minded people on the narrow-minded streets
