Jerry Butler - Only The Strong Survive Lyrics
I see you sittin' there all aloneCrying your eyes outWhile everything's going wrongYou know there's gonna beA whole lot of trouble in your lifeListen to me, get up off your knees'Cause only the strong surviveOnly the strong surviveOnly the strong surviveHey, you gotta be strongYou gotta hold onI said don't give up, no don'tI said don't go aroundWith your head looking downDont you let'em make you feel like a clownThere's a lot of opportunityOut there just waiting for youBut you'll never succeed if you've given upAnd say your life is throughListen this minute what I'm tellin' you Only the strong survive Only the strong survive I Hey, you gotta be strong Gotta hold on You gotta be a man, take a standOnly the strong surviveOnly the strong surviveWeak fall by the waysideYou gotta hold onYou gotta keep on, keep onKeep on, keep on, keep on gettin' on'Cause only the strong surviveOnly the strong surviveWeak fall by the waysideYou gotta be strongYou gotta hold onYou gotta keep goin' onOnly the strong surviveOnly the strong surviveWeak fall by the waysideYou gotta be a manYou gotta take a standGet up, set your body in motionYou knnw the strong surviveWake up and get your educationSo you can keep your family aliveGet away from negative situationsIt can only bring you a lot of frustrations'Cause only the strong survive Repeat I
