Only The Strong Survive |
| I remember my first love affair |
| Somehow or another the whole darn thing went wrong |
| My mamma had some great advice |
| So I thought I’d put it into words of this song |
| I can still hear her sayin’it |
| Boy, Oh, I see you’re sittin’out there all alone |
| Cryin’your eyes out 'cos the woman that you love has gone |
| Oh, there’s gonna be, there’s gonna be a whole lot of trouble in your life |
| Oh, so listen to me get up off your knees 'cos only the strong survive |
| That’s what she said, only the strong survive |
| Only the strong survive, |
| Oh you’ve got to be strong, you’d better hold on Don’t go all around with your head hung down |
| Well I wouldn’t let that little girl |
| No, I wouldn’t let her know that she made me feel like a clown |
| There’s a whole lot a girls lookin’for a good man like you |
| Oh but you’ll never meet 'em if you give up now and say that your life is through |
| Yes she said: Only the strong survive, only the strong survive, |
| You’ve got to be a man, you’ve got to take a stand |
| Only the strong survive, only the strong survive, |
| Oh, you’ve got to be strong, you’d better hold on |
| 'Cos only the strong survive |
| Only the strong survive, only the strong survive, |
| Well, you’ve got to be a man, you’ve got to take a stand |
| Only the strong survive, only the strong survive |
