Oh yeah, oh my darlin' stand by me

No matter who you 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 land is dark
And that moon is the only light you see
No, I won't be afraid, no, I won't shed one tear
Just as long as the people come and stand by me

Darlin', darlin' stand by me, oh, oh, oh, stand by me
Oh stand, stand, stand by me, c'mon stand by me, stand by me

Ooh, when that sky that we look upon, well should tumble and fall
Oh and the mountains, they should crumble into 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

So darling, darling stand by me, oh stand by me
Please stand, stand by me, stand by me
And 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)
Oh, oh, oh, stand
(La, la, nomie)
Oh, stand, oh, 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 land is dark
And the moon is the only light you see
I won't be afraid
(La, la, nomie)
I won't be afraid
Not as long, not as long as you stand by me
