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
For I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can give those of your needs
That you won't let show

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
For I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

So just call on me brother if you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
Yeah, I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on
You can lean on me
You can lean on me
You can call on me
You can call on me
