Only the Strong Survive - REO Speedwagon

You may not know this

But you are everything you’ve ever needed

Heaven with a touch of New York

Silver with a touch of gold

And I can see where you’re goin'

But I don’t really know the way

It’s got too many changes, too much rearrangin'

Too many ways to go astray

So if you wanna go, let me go along

I’d never walk that road alone

I’ve heard it was hard

I’ve heard it was long

But we’ll come back alive

'Cause only the strong survive

You walk on a wire, make a game of desire

Pitchin' pennies down a wishin' well

You’re leadin' the blind through their high and low times

But baby, can you lead yourself?

So calm down, honey, forget about the money

If you need me, I’ll always be there

Go ride your high horse alone, of course

'Cause if you need me, I’ll always care

But if you wanna go, let me go along

I’d never walk that road alone

I’ve heard it was hard

I’ve heard it was long

But we’ll come back alive

'Cause only the strong survive

So if you wanna go, let me go along

I’d never walk that road alone

I’ve heard it was hard

I’ve heard it was long

But we’ll come back alive

Yes, we will

But if you wanna go, let me go along

I’d never walk that road alone

I’ve heard it was hard

I’ve heard it was long

But we’ll come back alive

'Cause only the strong survive

Oh, we’ll come back alive

'Cause only the strong survive

Oh, we’ll come back alive

'Cause only the strong survive, whoo!
