Ry Cooder - Always Lift Him Up/kanaka Wai Wai lyrics

Your rating:


(Alfred Reed)/(Traditional) 

(G) - (C) - (D) 



(G) When a fellow has the blues and feels discouraged 

And there's (C) nothing else but trouble all his (G) life 

When he's always grumbled at and never happy 

Living with a scolding, aggravating (D) wife 

If he's (G) sick and tired of life and takes to drinking 

Do not pass him by,  don't greet him with a (C) frown 

Do not fail to lend a hand and try to (G) help him 

Always lift him up and (D) never knock him (C) down (G) 



If he stays out late at night because he's worried 

And because his home is not what it should be 

Have a smile for him whenever you should meet him 

It would help him just the right way, don't you see 

If he gambles when he's in the town or city 

Tell him what he ought to do to gain the crown 

Lend a hand and do not fail to show him pity 

Always lift him up and never knock him down 



If he cannot pay his debts and feels disgusted 

If he's blue and doesn't have a word to say 

Let him know you are his friend who can be trusted 

It would cheer this lonely fellow on his way 

If he finds it hard for him to keep his family 

Let a kind word greet his ear when he's around 

Don't say anything at all to make against him 

Always lift him up and never knock him down 



If he has no friends and everyone's against him 

If he's failed at everything that he has tried 

Try to lift his load, to help to bear his burden 

Let him know that you are walking by his side 

And if he feels that all is lost, and he is falling 

Try to place that poor man's feet on solid ground 

Just remember he's some mother's precious darling 

Always lift him up and never knock him down 

Always lift him up and never knock him down
