Try a Little Kindness

[Verse 1]
If you see your brother standing by the road
With a heavy load from the seeds he sowed
If you see your sister falling by the way
Just stop and say "you're going the wrong way"

[Chorus]
You've got to try a little kindness
Just show a little kindness
Shine your light for everyone to see
And if you try a little kindness
You'll overlook the blindness
Of the narrow-minded people
On the narrow-minded street

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
You've got to try a little kindness
Just show a little kindness
Shine your light for everyone to see
And if you try a little kindness
You'll overlook the blindness
Of the narrow-minded people
On the narrow-minded street

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
You've got to try a little kindness
Just show a little kindness
Shine your light for everyone to see
And if you try a little kindness
You'll overlook the blindness
Of the narrow-minded people
On the narrow-minded street
