Elvis Presley - I Need Somebody To Lean On Lyrics






I need somebody to lean on
I need somebody to, 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

Elvis Presley I Need Somebody To Lean On Comments
  1. B.... M....

    Imagine we did not have Elvis's movie songs none of them. And Elvis his career would have taken a completely different path. In my opinion his movie songs added to his place in history as one of the great entertainers in 20th century American history. The movie types and the writers of these songs did Elvis a great favor that allowed him to cross boundaries and transcend genres. Remember Elvis to escape poverty and live his dream same country and Blues on his rise out of Memphis. The song of course is neither it is a different genre as for his italianette songs. Contrary to what some people think the movie industry did Elvis a favor because it expanded his diverse music. And you can see fat during the last few years of his life his variety of music shrunk in my opinion though some of that could have been attributed to Canmore solitary lifestyle drugs and health issues. In other words Elvis was just hanging on and providing himself and his team a good living.

    I'm really glad I found this song because I had not heard it except recently and I wish they were more Hidden Treasures out there but I think I've list everything Elvis ever sang. I am on round X and as overall songs that he sang on..

  33. k.... h....

    Necesito a alguien en quien confiar
    Necesito a alguien
    Que mis problemas quiera escuchar
    Es inútil negar
    Q estoy por llorar
    Pero de qué sirve
    Díganme de que sirve llorar
    Necesito a alguien
    Que me quiera ayudar
    Que me ayude a olvidar
    Todas las preocupaciones

    Y cuando estoy solo
    Si alguien solo...
    Me tratara dulce y amablemente
    Necesito a alguien
    No podría ese alguien..
    Por favor, por favor escuchar
    Lo que estoy pidiendo
    Necesito que ese alguien
    No podría ese alguien..
    A mi lado
    Venir corriendo

    Estoy cansado de estar triste y melancolíco
    Si ella viniera
    La habría de abrazar
    Por qué necesito ese hombro
    Dónde me pueda apoyar
    Si, lo necesito
    Necesito a alguien
    Y, cariño ese alguien
    Eres tú

    Who says Elvis could not swing jazz this is a hybrid Jazz ballad record Elvis at his early 60s best

  35. S.... F....

    From 1960 to 1963 is when Elvis's voice was at its absolute best debility did hit the high notes with the phrasing and the flexibility in his voice was rather extraordinary I wish in time frame here he would have had more Freedom as an artist around this time here I would love to hear Elvis sing Johnny Mathis chances are on Nat King Cole's Unforgettable you definitely had the voice around this time the same those songs to perfection it's a shame Elvis didn't have better management or more discipline cuz he was so gifted and talented in so many ways too bad he's wanted his talents but it was definitely a talented actor and singer he's a true legend in the icon it will always be remembered as probably the most talented person ever I need someone to lean on is a classic Elvis 60s ballad it definitely should have got a gold record classic Elvis scene from a movie Viva Las Vegas Elvis looks really good to hear in physical condition great physical condition vocally and physically you should have played James Bond

  36. M.... F....

    I need someone to lean on

  37. T.... D....

    Just as it's been said Elvis could sing anything .but if you notice one. thing about him .he doesn't just sing the song .he becomes the. song .that a special talent he had .special talent from a special person .

    T.... D....

    nice comment Elvis was a great and underrated actor who got good roles in the early part of his career in the roles that he should have got that he did not get he put it in the song this is a beautiful ballad I need someone to lean on by Elvis his versatility as an actor is just as good as his versatility as a singer he's able to switch to characters and sing different type of song with ease and flexibility early 60s Elvis was always at his best physically and vocally I need someone to lean on is a classic ballad it should have got a gold record Elvis has so many different kinds of talents to bad he was mismanaged

    T.... D....

    Happy New Year

  38. P.... S....

    Great production number from a great musical . Does anyone know , is there a “movie version” of this tune?

    P.... S....

    This is the movie version.. it says at the start of the video. Its Viva Las Vegas.

  39. M.... H....

    I love you too Elvis Presley I really missed you

  40. 2.... ....

    Elvis was a coo l cat doubt ifever had to sing this tune for real

  41. T.... M....

    The best looking man ever 😘👍💋

  42. R.... N....

    Gorgeous bright spot in the unfortunate descent into Presley's Hollywood abyss... George Sydney directs...

  43. E.... P....

    Beautiful man beautiful song 😍

  44. B.... V....

    I had somebody tell me that 1960 is one Elvis's voice reached its Max. Clearly that individual was tone deaf. Clearly 1964 Elvis's vocals extraordinary great

    B.... V....

    Elvis voice at best 63-73

  45. c.... ....

    What a classic scene!

  46. J.... R....

    I need some one to lean on😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

  47. E.... ....

    He looks like he's about to cry. Who says he couldn't act?

    E.... ....

    IKR I could feel it!😭❤️😭

    E.... ....

    Just had too many pills, HAD to juice himself all the time to keep up with the Colones gambling debt Col Parker ruined Elvis. Punk ass Parker milked Elvis- HE should be responsible for Elvis-es downfall.

    E.... ....

    He could sing. The most expensive singer ever.

  48. L.... G....

    For me, he did sing about everything. All states of human being...

  49. P.... D....

    The song is real nice and bluesy. But let's face it. That guitar player is atrocious.

  50. B.... S....

    They Don't Make'em Like Him Anymore. Handsome As He Was Cool. This Is Absolutely Beautiful. This Is What I Call Grown Folks Music. 💯 ......

  51. t.... ....

    This is one of my all time favorite Elvis songs!

    Would absolutely love to hear it redone by someone like Smokey Robinson or Ronald Isley!

    Just a fantastic song!

  52. a.... e....

    ı love you Elvis presley  so much wonderful song ı need somebody to lean on.

  53. v.... s....

  55. A.... C....

    That voice! That voice! That voice! And those smouldering good looks!

    A.... C....

    I love his voice,😍 I like his looks,😀 and I love the way he was a good actor,😃 but I do not like that he died. 😥😥😥 R.I.P. elvis Aaron Presley rest in peace. Hope you are in heaven with your family. 😇😇😇😇

  56. M.... H....

    at his best

  57. S.... ....

    Nice song, There's always a couple of them on those soundtrack records. Anyway a so-so (or even bad) Elvis record is better than a lot of good ones by other entertainers.

    S.... ....

    Sylvain0008 I never would be an elvis fan if it was not for this movies , I hear his early movies they spend more time making the songs likes years before the movie release the movie makes the song better

  58. n.... ....

    Love this song

  59. D.... W....

    omg...i use to love love love this song...I was in love in Elvis in these movies when i was child...I fantasized about being one of the women in these movies...his voice was mesmerizing....

  60. 6.... ....

    architectures n the sixties ruled..just look at all the gorgeous scenery n this video

    6.... ....

    68comeback I love somes elvis sixtys movies I seen other non elvis sixty beach movies it not the same

  61. 6.... ....

    Yes..the best looking man ever..don't get things twisted..he's the king of everything everyone wanted n wants to b..

  62. p.... ....

    This is a really beautiful ballad with plenty of mood and atmosphere, and Elvis sang it perfectly. I still don't understand why I hear so many critics and people in general put down many of Elvis's soundtrack songs These songs were well written by professional songwriters who often didn't get the recognition they should have. Most of the soundtrack songs were classics. They can't write music like that anymore. The songwriters to the king should be recognized for their contributions to music.

    p.... ....

    Yes, This was Elvis' biggest movie, and for good reason. This is Elvis doing what he does best, sing, dance, and entertain. He shined on the big screen like no one else could. He had charisma second to none.

    p.... ....

    poetgb I hear in elvis early movies they spend more time making songs like years before the movie was made I never would an elvis fan if it was not his movies

    p.... ....

    no288 I hear in early in elvis movies career he spend more time making songs like years before the movie was made

    p.... ....

    I agree. There are many soundtrack songs on which elvis sounds more enthusiastic than several “studio “ songs !

    p.... ....

    Your so right! This song was beautiful. I cry when I here it. I think some people might be upset, because most of his songs were written by someone else. He was so talented & yet he only wrote a couple of the songs he sang. Either way I have k0d pop, loved Elvis & he will alwayß

  63. M.... ....

    definitely, God must be happy with Elvis up there ...amazing grace...beautiful song and singer!!

  64. J.... G....

    Elvis at his peak love this

  65. t.... j....

    my favoritre elvis Presley song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    t.... j....

    What a wonderful man never will be a another Elvis. Love him

  66. t.... j....

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELVIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  67. M.... ....

    I hadn't watched the movie in so long ...I didn't remember hearing this. Just sat and watched...cried. Happy Birthday Elvis. Sure do wish you had stuck around a lot longer. Without getting addicted to anything ... except the music. Such a wonderful voice.

  68. s.... ....

    I never knew he sang a jazz tune.

    s.... ....

    In my opinion that's what set Elvis apart from everyone else, in that he was very very versatile in his singing. He was rightfully so picked ( if memory serves ) by Rolling Stone mags, or some sort of music industry org, something like that, as '' The #`1 Entertainer of the last century ''. Old blue eyes Frank Sinatra came in 2nd.

  69. A.... Y....

    wish I could find my Baby....the song has a whole new meaning at 58 than it did at 20. Elvis the best ever!!!

    A.... Y....
