Sometimes in our lives
We all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's
Always tomorrow
Lean on me
When you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
Please, swallow your pride
If I have things
You need to borrow
For no one can fill
Those of your needs
That you won't let show
Just call on me, brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on
Lean on me
When you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
You just call on me, brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on
If there is a load
You have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me
If you need a friend
If you need a friend
Why don't you call me
I just want you to call me
If you want me, just call me
I just want you to call me
Why don't you call me
Just want you to call me
If you need me, just call me
If you need a friend
Why don't you call me
If you need a friend
Why don't you just call me
