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
till 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
You can call on me brother
when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem
that you`ll 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
till I`m gonna need
somebody to lean on
You can call on me brother
when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem
that you`ll 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 call me
If you need a friend call me
Call me Call me
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
till I`m gonna need
somebody somebody to lean on
