WOW, another superb song being requested! You guys have great taste! :)

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
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
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
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
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 gonna need
Somebody to lean on
Lean on me

Hi!!

I translated this from a Bill Withers version off a compilation CD.
My first graders love it and our 6th graders sang it for promotion
last year. Nothing like hearing this song from the mouth of babes :)

Here ya go...

Lean On Me
by 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

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
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
Till I'm going to 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…
