| This song says, no matter who you are,
 | 
| No matter where you go in your life
 | 
| At some point you're going to need
 | 
| Somebody to stand by you.
 | 
| Oh yeah! | 
| Oh my darlin' stand by me!
 | 
| No matter who your are, no matter where you go in life
 | 
| You gon' need somebody, to stand by you.
 | 
| No matter how much money you got, or the friends you got,
 | 
| You gon' need somebody, to stand by you
 | 
| When the night has come, and the way is dark,
 | 
| And that moon is the only light you see.
 | 
| No I won't be afraid, no I-I-I won't be afraid
 | 
| Just as long as the people come and stand by me.
 | 
| Darlin' darlin' stand by me, ooh stand by me Oh stand
 | 
| Stand stand by me C'mon stand by me stand by me
 | 
| If the sky that we look upon
 | 
| Well should tumble and fall
 | 
| And the mountains should crumble to the sea
 | 
| I won't cry, I won't cry, no I won't she'd a tear
 | 
| Just as long as you stand, stand by me
 | 
| Oh darling, darling stand by me, oh stand by me,
 | 
| Oh please stand, stand by me, stand by me.
 | 
| Oh darling, darling stand by me, oh stand by me,
 | 
| Please stand, stand by me, stand by me.
 | 
| Oh baby, baby
 | 
| Oh darlin' darlin' stand la la nomie
 | 
| Ooh stand la la nomie, O stand O stand stand
 | 
| Stand by me c'mon stand by me, stand by me.
 | 
| Stand la la nomie, oh won't you stand, la la nomie,
 | 
| Oh stand la la nomie, stand by me, c'mon stand by me.
 | 
| When the night has come, and the way is dark
 | 
| And the moon, is the only light you see
 | 
| I won't be afraid, lala nomie, I won't be afraid
 | 
| Not as long, not as long as you stand by me. |
