Only The Strong Survive Lyrics - Skeeter Davis

I remember my first love affair 

Somehow or another the whole darn thing went wrong 

And my mamma had some great advice so I thought I'd put it into words of this song 

I can still hear her sayin' girl oh I see you're sittin' out there all alone 

 

Cryin' your eyes out cause the man that you love has gone 

There's gonna be a whole lot of trouble in your life 

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 

 

So you've gotta be strong you'd better hold on 

Don't go don't go around with your head hung down 

Well I wouldn't let the little boy know 

I wouldn't let him know that he made me feel like a clown 

 

There's a whole lotta men looking for a good girl like you 

But you know you'll never meet 'em if you give up now and say your life is through 

And then she said only the strong survive only the strong survive 

If you want to get a man you've got to take a stand only the strong survive
