And you need a helping hand 
And nothing  whoa nothing is going right.

And I'll be there  yeah  yeah  yeah.

If the sky above you 
should turn dark and full of clouds 
and that old north wind should begin to blow 
Keep your hands together and call my name out loud 
and soon I will be knocking upon your door.
