Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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"
[Verse 2]
But you've got to try a little kindness
Yeah, show a little kindness
And just shine your light for everyone to see
And if you try a little kindness
Then you'll overlook the blindness
Of narrow minded people of the narrow minded streets
[Verse 3]
Don't walk around the down and out
Lend a helping hand instead of doubt
And the kindness that you show every day
Will help someone along their way
[Verse 4]
You've got to try a little kindness
Yeah, show a little kindness
And just shine your light for everyone to see
And if you try a little kindness
Then you'll overlook the blindness
Of narrow minded people of the narrow minded streets
[Verse 5]
You've got to try a little kindness
Yes, Lord, show a little kindness
And just shine your light for everyone to see
And if you try a little kindness
Then you'll overlook the blindness
Of narrow minded people of the narrow minded streets
