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 going the wrong way
You've got to try a little kindness yes show a little kindness
Yes shine your light for everyone to see
And if you try a little kindness then you'll overlook the blindness
Of the narrow minded people on the narrow minded streets
[ guitar ]
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
You've got to try a little kindness
You've got to try a little kindness
