Lean on Me

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

'till 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 wont 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!



[sing following chorus higher]



Lean on me

when you're not strong

I'll be your friend

I'll help you carry on

for it wont be long

'till 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!

you have to bare

that you can't carry

I'm right up the road

I'll share your load

if you just call me



Won't you just call me?

If you need a friend

Call me

Call me uh-uh

Call me

If you need a friend

Call me

Call me

If you ever need a friend

Call me

Call me!

Call me

Call me

Call me

If you ever need a friend

Call me

Call me

Call me

Call me

You know you need a friend

Call me! [fade out]
