I can still remember what my daddy said to me
When I was just a little boy
and sitting on his knee
Treat everyone with kindness
make everyone your friend
You never know what life has
waiting just around the bend

Find yourself a special love
on whom your can depend
When you see folks in trouble
be there with a hand to lend
These things don’t seem
important now but one day when your grown
You’ll understand me well when
you have children of your own

Treat everyone with kindness
Make everyone your friend
Do a good deed every day for
every day you spend
Though the world spins round in circles
It will one day reach an end
And you’ll find just like the
rest of us that you can
use a friend

The years have passed
I’m older now
Oh how the time has flown
I think about my daddy
I have children of my own
I share with them his wisdom
The gift he gave to me
‘Bout how your ‘sposed to lead your life
The way its meant to be

Treat everyone with kindness
and you’ll never be alone
People will repay you for the
kindness you have shown

Treat everyone with kindness
Make everyone your friend
Do a good deed every day for
every day you spend
Though the world spins round in circles
It will one day reach an end
You’ll find just like the rest
of us that you can use a friend
