Lyrics
Sometimes in our lives
We all have pain, we all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow
Oh yeah
Lean on me when you're not strong
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
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'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on
Lean on me when you're not strong
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'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on
If there is a load that 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) call me, (call me) call me
(Call me) call me (call me) if you need a friend
(Call me) call me, (call me) call me
(Call me) call me, (call me) ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Lean on me when you're not strong
I'll be your friend, I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need somebody
Somebody to lean on
(Lean on) oh yeah, (lean on me) you can lean on me
(Lean on, lean on me) you can lean on me
(Lean on, lean on me) if you need a friend
(Lean on, lean on me) call me, call me
(Lean on, lean on me) you can lean on me
(Lean on, lean on me) lean on
(Lean on) lean on, (lean on me) lean on me
(Lean on) lean on me, (lean on me) lean on me
(Lean on, lean on me) just lean on me, lean on me
(Lean on, lean on me) just lean on me if you need a friend
(Lean on, lean on me) you can, you can lean on me
(Lean on, lean on me)
(Lean on, lean on me)
(Lean on, lean on me)
