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
I'll be your friend
And 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 (that's right)
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'll understand (mm)
We all need somebody to lean on

If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm, I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me
Just call me

Just call me

(Call me)
Come on and call me
If you need a friend
Call me (oh oh oh)
Oh, darling, Just call me (ooh)
Call me (call me)
Call me (oh)
Call me
