Tryin' Times

Tryin' Times - Donny Hathaway

Yeah yeah yeah oh yeah

Trying times what the world is talking about

You got confusion all over the land yeah

You got mother against daughter

You got father against son

You know the whole thing is getting out of hand

Oh then maybe folks wouldn't have to suffer

If there was more love for your brother

But these are trying times yeah yeah

You got the riots in the ghetto it's all around

A whole lot of things

That's wrong is going down yes it is

I can't understand it from my point of view

'Cause I think you should do unto others

As you'd have them do unto you

Then maybe folks wouldn't have to suffer

If there was more love for your brother

But these are trying times yes it is

I said man is always talking about it's inhumanity to man

But what is he trying to do to make it a better man

Oh just read the paper turn on your TV

You see folks demonstrating about equality

But maybe folks wouldn't have to suffer

If there was more love for your brother

But these are trying times

Trying times yeah that's what the world is talking about

You got confusion all over the land
