The Impressions - Only the Strong SurviveLyrics

I see you sittin' there all alone Crying your eyes out While everything's going wrong You know there's gonna be A whole lot of trouble in your life Listen to me, get up off your knees 'Cause only the strong survive Only the strong survive Only the strong survive Hey, you gotta be strong You gotta hold on I said don't give up, no don't I said don't go around With your head looking down don't you let'em make you feel like a clown There's a lot of opportunity Out there just waiting for you But you'll never succeed if you've given up And say your life is through Listen this minute what I'm tellin' you Only the strong survive Only the strong survive Hey, you gotta be strong Gotta hold on You gotta be a man, take a stand Only the strong survive Only the strong survive Weak fall by the wayside You gotta hold on You gotta keep on, keep on Keep on, keep on, keep on gettin' on 'Cause only the strong survive Only the strong survive Weak fall by the wayside You gotta be strong You gotta hold on You gotta keep goin' on Only the strong survive Only the strong survive Weak fall by the wayside You gotta be a man You gotta take a stand Get up, set your body in motion You know the strong survive Wake up and get your education So you can keep your family alive Get away from negative situations It can only bring you a lot of frustrations 'Cause only the strong survive Only the strong survive Only the strong survive Hey, you gotta be strong Gotta hold on You gotta be a man, take a stand
