Lyrics[]
Chuck E.: With a little love and some tenderness
We'll walk upon the water
We'll rise above the mess
With a little peace and some harmony
We'll take the world together
We'll take 'em by the hand, oh
All: 'Cause I've got a hand for you
'Cause I wanna run with you
Chuck E.: Yesterday, I saw you standin' there
Your head was down, your eyes were red
No comb had touched your hair
I said, "Get up, and let me see you smile
We'll take a walk together
Walk the road a while, oh"
All: 'Cause I've got a hand for you (Chuck E.: I've got a hand for you)
'Cause I wanna run with you (Chuck E.: Won't you let me run with you, yeah)
Helen, Munch, Jasper, and Pasqually: Hold my hand
Chuck E.: Want you to hold my hand
Helen, Munch, Jasper, and Pasqually: Hold my hand
Chuck E.: I'll take you to a place where you can be
Helen, Munch, Jasper, and Pasqually: Hold my hand
Chuck E.: Anything you wanna be because
I wanna love you the best that
The best that I can
See, I was wasted, whoa, I was wasting time
'Til I thought about your problems, I thought about your crimes
Then I stood up, and then I screamed aloud
Don't wanna be part of your problems
Don't wanna be part of your crowd, no
All: 'Cause I've got a hand for you (Chuck E.: I've got a hand for you)
'Cause I wanna run with you (Chuck E.: Ah, won't you let me run with you?)
Helen, Munch, Jasper, and Pasqually: Hold my hand
Chuck E.: I want you to hold my hand
Helen, Munch, Jasper, and Pasqually: Hold my hand
Chuck E.: I'll take you to the Promised Land
Helen, Munch, Jasper, and Pasqually: Hold my hand
Chuck E.: Maybe we can't change the world but
I wanna love you the best that
The best that I can
A'right, take it Jasper!
Helen, Munch, Jasper, and Pasqually: Hold my hand
Chuck E.: Want you to hold my hand
Helen, Munch, Jasper, and Pasqually: Hold my hand
Chuck E.: I'll take you to a place where you can be
Helen, Munch, Jasper, and Pasqually: Hold my hand
Anything you wanna be because
I, oh, no, no, no
Helen, Munch, Jasper, and Pasqually: Hold my hand
Chuck E.: Want you to hold my hand
Helen, Munch, Jasper, and Pasqually: Hold my hand
Chuck E.: I'll take you to the Promised Land
Helen, Munch, Jasper, and Pasqually: Hold my hand
Chuck E.: Oh, maybe we can't change the world but
I'm gonna love you the best that
The best that I can, oh
The best that I can
