▶️ Watch on 3Speak

The song
Bill Withers fabulous song about friendship and how we all need each other
The lyrics

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 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 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 gonna 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

    I love this song. It is the same one I had in mind to sing but I changed my mind and have recorded something else. It will be published soon.
    Meanwhile, you did justice to the cover of the song well done🙂👌

    Your skill on the guitar is just so admirable. Your voice does not sound like that of a man of your age. It sounds so sonorous like that of a young man.
    This is a fascinating post. Kudos sir you rock!!

    I’ve got a few in my collection I could have done instead, although I usually play this one on keyboard/piano.
