Written by Roger McGuinn



In times of dispair, I think about the good things that you've done

And though you're not there, I sometimes ask myself, is anyone?

It's hard being human, when the whole world's uptight



But somehow I know

that everything's gonna work out all right



I might lose my patience, but won't you please try to understand

I've got obligations, and I intend to face 'em and take my stand

Oh, it's so hard being human, with all the troubles in sight



But somehow I know

that everything's gonna work out all right



Stick by me baby, in spite of my thoughts

that's all I want you to do, and try to help me when I'm down

and I'll take good care of you



Now I want to thank you for all the gentle loving that you give

it brightens my feelings and gives me the strength I need to live

Oh it's so hard being human, with all of the troubles in sight



But somehow I know

that everything's gonna work out all right
