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 don't let show
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
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, said it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need, somebody to lean on
Just call on me
(Ah, when you need a friend)
Call on me
(Oh, baby now)
Call on me
(Ah, when you need a friend)
Call me
(Oh, baby now)
Call on me
(Ah, when you need a friend)
Call on me
(Oh, baby now)
