Only The Strong Survive

In the style of

Jerry Butler

Lyrics

i remember
my first love affair
somehow
or another
the whole darn
thing went wrong

and my mama had
some great advice
so i thought
i'd put it in the words
of this song
i can still hear
her saying

boy oh i see you
sittin' up there
all alone
crying your eyes out
'cause the woman
that you love is 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
'cause only
the strong survive
that's what she said

she said
only the strong
survive
only the strong
survive

yeah you gotta
be strong
you'd better
hold on
don't go oh around
with your head
hung down

well i wouldn't let
the little girl know
wouldn't let
her know
that she made me
feel like a clown

there are a whole
lot of girls
looking for
a good man like you

oh but you'll never
meet 'em if you
give up now
and say your
life is through
then she said

only the strong
survive
only the strong
survive
hey you gotta
be a man
you gotta
take a stand yeah

so i'm tellin' you
right now
only the strong
survive
only the strong
survive

hey you gotta
be strong
you better hold on

don't worry about it
don't ya know
that things
are gonna change
oh but you gotta
be a man
you gotta
take a stand

don't ever feel
that you can't
make it baby
'cause there ain't
no woman worth it
you got to make it
