Old Crow Medicine Show - Lift him up

^DWhen a man has got the blues and feels discouraged ^GAnd has nothing else but trouble all his life ^DBut he's just an honest man like any other ^GLiving in a world that's tearing at his mind ^DIf he's sick and tired of life and takes to drinking ^GDo not pass him by don't greet him with a frown ^DDo not fail to lend your hand and try to help him ^DAlways lift him up and ^Anever knock him ^Ddown

^DIf he stays out late at night because he's troubled ^GOr because his home is not what it should be ^DHave a smile for him wherever you might meet him ^GIt will help him find the right way don't you see ^DIf he gambles when he's in the town or city ^GTell him what he ought to do to win the round ^DDo not fail to lend your hand to show him pity ^DAlways lift him up and ^Anever knock him ^Ddown

^DIf he has no friends and everything's against him ^GIf he's failed in everything he has tried ^DTry to lift his load and help him bear his burden ^GLet him know that you are walking by his side ^DIf he feels that all is lost and he has fallen ^GHelp to place this poor man's feet on solid ground ^DAnd when this world has turned its back against him ^DAlways lift him up and ^Anever knock him ^Ddown
