4 4 7 7 -7 -6 7 -6 -6 6 6 5
When a fellow has the blues and feels discouraged
4 5 6 6 6 -6 -8 -8 -7 -6 6
And there's nothing else but trouble all his life
4 5 7 7 7 -6 7 -6 -6 6 6 5
When he's always grumbled at and never happy
5 5 -5 -5 -5 -6 -8 -8 -7 -6 6
Living with a scolding, aggravating wife
4 5 7 7 7 -6 7 -6 -6 6 6 5
If he's sick and tired of life and takes to drinking
5 -5 6 6 6 6 -5 5 -4 4 7
Do not pass him by, don't greet him with a frown
-5 6 -6 -6 -6 -7 7 7 7 -6 6 5
Do not fail to lend a hand and try to help him
4 -4 5 5 5 5 6 -5 5 4 -4 5-4 4
Always lift him up and never knock him down
5 -5 7 7 7 -6 7 -6 -6 6 6 5
If he stays out late at night because he's worried
4 5 6 6 6 -6 6 -5 5 -4 7
And because his home is not what it should be
6 -6 7 7 7 -6 7 -6 -6 6 6 5
Have a smile for him whenever you should meet him
5 5 -5 -5 -5 -6 -8 -8 -7 -6 6
It would help him just the right way, don't you see
4 5 7 7 7 -6 7 -6 -6 6 6 5
If he gambles when he's in the town or city
5 -5 6 6 6 -6 6 -5 5 4 7
Tell him what he ought to do, to gain the crown
-5 6 -6 -6 -6 -7 -8 7 7 -6 6 5
Lend a hand and do not fail to show him pity
4 -4 5 5 5 5 6 -5 5 4 -4 5-4 4
Always lift him up and never knock him down
5 -5 7 -6 7 -6 7 -6 7 -6 6 5
If he has no friends and everyone's against him
5 -5 6 6 6 5 6 -5 5 -4 7
If he's failed at everything that he has tried
6 -6 7 7 7 -6 7 -6 7 -6 6 5
Try to lift his load, to help to bear his burden
5 -5 6 6 6 -6 -8 -8 -7 -6 6
Let him know that you are walking by his side
4 5 -5 7 7 7 -6 7 -6 -6 6 6 5
And if he feels that all is lost, and he is falling
5 -5 6 6 6 -6 -7 6 5 4 7
Try to place that poor man's feet on solid ground
-5 6 -6 -6 -6 -7 -8 7 7 -6 6 5
Just remember he's some mother's precious darling
4 -4 5 5 5 5 6 -5 5 4 -4 5-4 4
Always lift him up and never knock him down
4 -4 5 5 5 5 6 -5 5 4 -4 5-4 4
Always lift him up and never knock him down
