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


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

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


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 bear that you can't carry
I'm right up the road, I'll share your load

If you just call me

Call me (If you need a friend)

Call me (Call me uh-huh)
Call me (When 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
