Elvis Presley - I Need Somebody to Lean On (Viva Las Vegas/Roustabout)
(Words & music by Pomus - Shuman)
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

I've been arguing with myself for 20 years now, whether this or George Harrison's/the Beatles' 'Something' is the best lovesong ever. Currently I'm leaning towards this one, and of course it doesn't disqualify it in any way, that it's The King singing it.
