If you know someone

Who is down and out,

And is flailing all about,

Give them a call

To say hello,

It couldn’t hurt.

If you have a friend you know is sad,

Listen to them if they’re feeling bad.

Let them talk and let it out,

It couldn’t hurt.

If ever you get in a situation where

You are lonely, and hoping for someone to care,

Simply fold your hands and say a prayer,

It couldn’t hurt.
