It Couldn’t Hurt

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 you know of a neighbor

Who could use a hand,

Or who needs someone to care;

Pay them a visit

And give them a hug,

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.
