By Bill Withers
Lyrics
Sometimes in our lives, we all have pain, we all have sorrow
But, if we are wise, we know that there's always to-morrow
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
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
Chorus
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
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
Chorus
