Lyrics
When you need a friend
To lend an ear
Someone who understands
Your dreams and your fears
Someone to talk to
Whose been there too
In no position
To be judging you
If it's a brother
That you need
Call on me
(Chorus)
Call on me
I'll be around
When times are hard
And the chips are down
If it's a brother
That you need
Call on me
You'll get no opinion
You?ll get no advice
I can't give nothin'
That you aint already got
It's up to you
It's your life
It's your call
You decide
But if you need a brother
Please feel free
To call on me
(chorus)
There'll be no persuasion
No self serving lies
You'll get no excuses
To justify
It's up to you
To work it through
Until you get down
To the truth
If you need a brother
Please feel free
To call on me
(Chorus)
