And there’s no one else around
Just turn to me and I will be

And there’s no reason for your sadness
Just because you may fall
Just turn to me, your ticket to be free
Mr. Helping Hand when you call

It’s just because I really love you, baby
Just because I really care
Just because I really need you
Mr. Helping Hand is always there

And when the time comes that your choosing
Oh man, I hope you’re very old
Just turn to me and I will be
Mr. Helping Hand your belong

It’s just because I really love you, woman
And just because I really care
Just because I really need you
Mr. Helping Hand is always there

It’s just because I really love you
Just because I really care
Just because I really need you
Mr. Helping Hand is always there

Oh, oh
It’s just because I really love you, woman
And just because I really, really care
