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.

So 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’d understand:

we all need somebody to lean on.

Lean on me, when you’re not strong...

So just call on me brother...

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.

Call me, call me. (4v.)
