2. Chico and the Man Closing Theme Song

Chico and the Man's Theme song: Sung by Jose Feliciano

Chico, don't be discouraged,
The man he ain't so hard to understand.
Chico, if you try now,
I know that you can lend a helping hand.

Because there's good in everyone
And a new day has begun
You can see the morning sun if you try.

And I know, things will be better
Oh yes they will for Chico and the Man
Yes they will for Chico and the Man.
