Bread - Make It By Yourself Lyrics
You say you're down and out and need some help to get you through each day
Well, here's a thought or two I've used and like to pass them on your way
I found them lying there, the answers that you say you're looking for
Make what you will of them and you can change the way it was before
You know you got to make it by yourself
I'll be your friend and I'll lend a helping hand
But you got to try and help yourself before I can
I hear you talk of all the happiness and emptiness you've known
Well, let me reassure you, never were you really all alone
They say in quiet desperation many people cannot see
They cannot see the simple truth that's not the way it has to be
You got to find it for yourself
I am your friend and I'll lend a helping hand
But you got to try and help yourself before I can
We got to help (we got to help) each other (each other)
You got to help (you to help) your brother when you can
When you can
Now don't you think that I was preaching, I'm just reaching out for you
'Cause that's the only way that I know how to get the message through
Then you, in turn, have got to learn and teach it to somebody who
Who felt the happiness, the emptiness the same as you
You got to make it by yourself
You know you got to make it by yourself
I'll be your friend and I'll lend a helping hand
But you got to try and help yourself before I can

6 people don't want to help themselves and would prefer you do things for them.
Should be covered by a modern country artist.
Love Love this song!! Should be the required listening to everyone in their formative years.
Such a great song
Nice clean recording and not a distorted mp3 as I usually get on Youtube!
