Only The Strong Survive

Jerry Butler

Only The Strong Survive (Versión Original)

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 saying it

Boy, oh, I see you're sitting out there all alone
Crying your eyes out cause 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 cause 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 looking for a good man like you
Oh but you'll never meet them if you give up now and say that your life is through
And she said: Only the strong survive, only the strong survive
You've got to be a man, you've got to take a stand

So I'm telling you right now
Only the strong survive, only the strong survive
Hey, you've got to be strong, you'd better hold on
Don't worry about it
Don't you know that things are gonna change
Oh, but you gotta be a man, you gotta take a stand
Don't ever feel bad, you can make it baby
