[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
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

[Verse 2]
Please swallow your pride
If I have faith 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
'Til 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 uh huh
(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)
