Give The Man A Hand

(album: The Left Banke Too - 1968)

Reading lots of books
Trying to find an answer

An answer pertaining to
The questions in his mind

Running all around
Caught in the web of the mystery of life

Trying to find a reason
For all the pain he feels

What can we do for him? (can you do?)
What can we do for him? (what can you do?)

You could give the man a hand
And help him see that he's wanted
Try and help him understand
His life is one that's meant for joy

Seeing him with your eyes
Picking up packages on the corner
Lonely man
Walking along, singing a song for no one

No one wants to try and understand (give him a try and understand)
Can't you see he's stuck in a jam?

Step up and give the man a hand
Help him see that he's wanted
Try and help him understand
His life is one that's meant for joy

Give him a hand

Give the man a hand
Help him see that he's wanted
What can you do for him?
Give the man a hand
Help him see that he's wanted (sing the song)
So give the man a hand
Help him see that he's wanted
What can you do?
