Give the Man a Hand by The Left Banke Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1968

[Verse 1]
Reading lots of books
Trying to find an answer
An answer pertaining to
The questions in his mind

[Verse 2]
Running all around
Caught in the web of the mystery of life
Trying to find a reason
For all the pain he feels

[Pre-Chorus]
What can we do for him? (What can you do?)
What can we do for him? (What can you do?)

[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
Seeing him with your eyes
Picking up packages on the corner
Lonely man
Walking along, singing a song for no one

[Pre-Chorus]
No one wants to try and understand (Give him a try and understand)
Can't you see he's stuck in a jam?

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
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 a song)
So give the man a hand
Help him see that he's wanted
(What can you do?)
