[Verse 1]
If you should hurt
Someone today
Before you turn
And walk away

[Chorus]
Try (try)
Try a little kindness

[Verse 2]
If someone did
Wrong to you
Before you do, whoa
The same thing too

[Chorus]
You'll have to try now
Try, try a little kindness

[Bridge]
Life may not always be fair
But that's just how it is
But if we learn to really care
There can be better years, oh
[Verse 3]
Wise men say (wise men say)
Time after time
If you wanna feel rich
When you don't have a time

[Chorus]
I want you to try now
Try, try a little kindness

[Interlude]
And one mo' thing I wanna say

[Verse 4]
Help someone
To make it through
Oh and, then you'll know
It's gotta be, gotta better to

[Chorus]
Come on and try now
Try, try a little kindness

[Outro]
When you wake up today
Try, try a little kindness
Help someone across the street
Try, try a little kindness
Please, please
Try, try a little kind...
