[Verse 1]
Lean upon me 'til ya
A little too familiar
Talking like we're best friends
Sympathy will extend so far
'Til ya cryin' on my shoulder
Though I don't really know ya
Telling me your woes like
Me and you are so tight, you'll start (Yeah)

[Chorus]
'Cause I've got problems
Like everybody else got problems
You've got problems
But hearing all about your problems
Couldn't help solving mine
And I'd never look to be spiteful
But I've got problems
So I don't wanna hear your problems

[Verse 2]
Confuse me for your council
Even when it's doubtful
I'd be qualified to
Ever give advice to someone
Mistakenly, you seem to
Have taken me for he who
Wants to be reminded
Every day and night and then some
[Chorus]
'Cause I've got problems
Like everybody else got problems
You've got problems
But hearing all about your problems
Couldn't help solving mine
And I'd never look to be spiteful
But I've got problems
So I don't wanna hear your problems

[Post-Chorus]
(Problems, problems, problems)
(Problems, problems, problems)
No, I don't wanna hear your problems

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
'Cause I've got problems
Like everybody else got problems
You've got problems
But hearing all about your problems
Couldn't help solving mine
And I'd never look to be spiteful
But I've got problems
So I don't wanna hear your problems
[Post-Chorus]
(Problems, problems, problems)
(Problems, problems, problems)

[Outro]
'Cause I've got problems
