Sometimes there are 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 meet
Somebody to lean on

Please swallow your pride
If I have faith you need to borrow
For no one can feel 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'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 meet
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'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 root and I'll share your load
If you just call me

Call me if you need me
Call me when you want me
Call me if you need me
Call me when you want me
Call me
