I Need Somebody to Lean On

I need somebody to lean on

I need somebody to tell my troubles to

No use denying, I'm close to cryin'

But what good, tell me what good would my crying do



I need somebody to help me

Help me forget all those worries on my mind

And when I'm lonely, if someone would only

Want to be sweet and kind



I need somebody, won't that somebody

Please, please listen to my plea

Need that somebody, won't that somebody

Come running to me



I need somebody to lean on

I'm tired of being unhappy and so blue

If she came I would hold her 'cause I need that shoulder

To lean on, yes I really do

I need somebody, and maybe that somebody is you

Mmmmmmm
