SOPRANOS                Oohs                           

AND ALTOS

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

                    Till I’m going to need

                    Somebody to lean on

VERSE                      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

SOLO1                      You just call on me brother when you need a hand

CHOIR                      We all need somebody to lean on

SOLO2                      I just might have a problem that you’d understand

CHOIR                      We all need somebody to lean on

                                CHORUS

VERSE                      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

                                CHORUS

SOLO2            You just call on me sister when you need a hand

CHOIR            We all need somebody to lean on

SOLO1            She just might have a problem that you’d understand

CHOIR            We all need somebody to lean on
