Sometimes in our lives, we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But, if we are wise, we know that there's always tomorrow
Please, swollow 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 if you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
Just might have a problem that you'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on

Lean on me when your not strong
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

Just call on me brother if you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
Just might have a problem that you'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on

Call me
I want you to call me
Oh please call me
You know you gotta call me

You carry that load, you'll have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up that road, I'll share your load
If you'll just call me
So, when your not strong
I'll be your friend, I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long, I'm gonna need somebody to lean on
