Every good man needs a helping hand

so I travel alone if I can

Every man has a guiding star

and he knows what he's gonna get

when he's going too far



Living on the dark side once again

It's sad to lose a friend

Looking at things with empty feelings

Still we're going on



For Every good man needs a helping hand

I should have known too

Some of us learn too late, I'm sorry

Every good man needs a helping hand

It's true



Every good man needs a helping hand

so I travel alone if I can

Every man has a guiding star

and he knows

what he's gonna get

when he's going too far



Living on the dark side once again

It's sad to lose a friend

Looking at things with empty feelings

Still we're going on



For Every good man needs a helping hand

I should have known too

Some of us learn too late, I'm sorry

Every good man needs a helping hand

It's true
