Artist: Diana Ross
LP/CD: Diana Ross ~~ Motown ~~ 1970
Composers: Nickolas Ashford~Valerie Simpson

Reach out and touch somebody’s hand
Make this world a better place if you can
Reach out and touch somebody’s hand
Make this world a better place if you can {Just try}

Take a little time out of your busy day
To give encouragement to someone who’s lost the way {Just try}
Or would I be talking to a stone
If I asked you to share a problem that’s not your own {Oh, no}
We can change things if we start givin’

Why don’t you reach out and touch somebody’s hand
Make this world a better place if you can
Reach out and touch somebody’s hand
Make this world a better place if you can {Just try}

If you see an old friend on the street
And he’s down, remember his shoes could fit your feet {Just try}
Try a little kindness you’ll see
It’s somethin’ that comes very naturally {Oh, yeah}
We can change things if we start givin’

Why don’t you {Why don’t you} reach out and touch somebody’s hand

{Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba}
{Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh}
{Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba}
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Reach out and touch (Reach out) somebody’s hand (Touch somebody’s hand)
Make this world a better place if you can (Reach out)
Reach out and touch (Touch) somebody’s hand (Touch somebody’s hand)
Make this world a better place (Ah...) if you can (Why don’t you)

Reach out and touch (Why don’t you reach out) somebody’s hand (Somebody’s hand)
Make this world a better place if you can
