[Verse 1]
Sometimes in our lives
We all have pain, we all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow
[Chorus]
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 need somebody to lean on
[Verse 2]
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
[Bridge]
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
[Chorus]
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 need somebody to lean on
[Bridge]
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
[Verse 3]
If there is a load
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
[Outro]
(Call me) If you need a friend
(Call me) Call me, yeah
(Call me) If you need a friend
(Call me) If you ever need a friend
(Call me) 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) Call me
Call me
