Akeela Songbook: Lean on Me

Bill Withers

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

Please swallow your pride, If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs that you don’t let show

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

So 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’d understand. We all need somebody to lean on

Chorus
