Текст песни In Times Like These (live) - Alan Price

In times like these
It's good to have a friend
In times like these
On whom you can depend on
For a helping hand
Now isn't it grand

When folks next door
Help you raise a smile
Makes you forget
Your troubles for a while
Now that's what friends are for
I've told you before
And when the money doesn't go far
We end up drinking out of jam jars
When there's no meat on the table
We live as well as we are able
It's just not true
That we are all alone
It's just not true
'Cos someone must have done it
With somebody else
Or else you wouldn't be here
Do I make myself clear?

And when the money doesn't go far
We end up drinking out of jam jars
When there's no meat on the table
We live as well as we are able

In times like these
It's good to have a friend
In times like these
On whom you can depend on
For a helping hand
Now isn't it grand

A helping hand
For a helping hand
A helping hand
For a helping hand
Isn't it grand?
We all need a helping hand.
