Do you ever take time for a bit of a talk? Do you know his troubles, his heartaches, his cares, The battles he’s fighting, the bur dens he bears? Do you greet him with joy or pass him right by, With a questioning look and a quizzical eye? Do you bid him “good morning” and “How do you do”. Or shrug up as if he was nothing to you? He may be a chap with a mighty big heart, And a welcome that grips, if you do your part. And I know you'll coax out his sunniest smile, If you’ll stop with this neighbor and visit awhile. We rush on so fast in these stren uous days, We’re apt to find fault when its better to praise. We judge a mans worth by the make of his car, We’re anxious to find what his politics are. But somehow it seldom gets un der the hide. The fact that the fellow we’re living beside, Is a fellow like us, with a hank ering too. For a grip of the hand and a “How do you do”. With a heart that responds to a welcome sincere, If you’ll just stop to fling him a message of cheer. I know you’ll coax out his sun niest smile, If you’ll stop with this neighbor and visit awhile.
