Lean On Me
Bill Withers 1972
  (Sounds 2000 2003)   Jack O'Leary
 
two columns

OPENER - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
Sometimes in our lives, we all have pain, we all have sorrows
Men star right, one time tonight

Left allemande and weave
Lean on me when you're not strong, and I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on

Promenade
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need somebody to lean on


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads (Sides) promenade halfway around
Walk in pass the ocean, extend
Swing thru, boys run, half tag
Walk & dodge, partner trade
Pass the ocean, recycle
Swing corner and promenade
Lean on me when you're not strong
We all need somebody to lean on


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic

Circle left
Call on me brother when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I might have a problem that you understand
We all need somebody to lean on

4 ladies promenade one time around
Back home and swing
You swing your man and promenade
Lean on me when you're alone
We all need somebody to lean on
