Lyrics
If somebody needs a friend
Their loneliness you can end
If you've got love you can give to them
Pass it on
If you would only answer their call
Or help them to stand tall
If you can do anything at all
Pass it on
Chorus:
Pass it on to your neighbor
Pass it on to your town
Give what you can
pass it on, pass it on, pass it on
If you can lighten a body's load
Or help them along life's rocky road
If you can ease the pain of growing old
Pass it on
If you can brighten someone's day
Or just listen to what they say
If you can help in any way
Pass it on
(Chorus)
Pass it on, pass it on
Pass it on, pass it on
Pass it on, pass it on
Pass it on
