CWhen a man has got the blues and feels discouraged
FAnd has nothing else but trouble all his life
CBut he's just an honest man like any other
FLiving in a world that's tearing at his mind
CIf he's sick and tired of life and takes to drinking
FDo not pass him by don't greet him with a frown
CDo not fail to lend your hand and try to help him
CAlways lift him up and Fnever knock him Cdown
C F C x2 (with harmonica)
CIf he stays out late at night because he's troubled
FOr because his home is not what it should be
CHave a smile for him wherever you might meet him
FIt will help him find the right way don't you see
CIf he gambles when he's in the town or city
FTell him what he ought to do to win the round
CDo not fail to lend your hand to show him pity
CAlways lift him up and Fnever knock him Cdown
C F C x3 (with harmonica)
CIf he has no friends and everything's against him
FIf he's failed in everything he has tried
CTry to lift his load and help him bear his burden
FLet him know that you are walking by his side
CIf he feels that all is lost and he has fallen
FHelp to place this poor man's feet on solid ground
CAnd when this world has turned its back against him
CAlways lift him up and Fnever knock him Cdown
