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

You just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
And I just might have a problem that you might 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
And I just might have a little problem that you might understand
We all need somebody to lean on

Now if, if there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I might, might right be there to share your load
'Cause we all need somebody, baby, to lean on

Now why don't you just (call me)
I can't....you tell me one more time (call me)

Now if you need a helping hand (call me)
If you need somebody to kiss you goodnight (call me)
If you need somebody to drag, I'll be there, baby (call me)
That's all you gotta do, just call me (call me)
