In the hell raising business of rock and roll
You gotta make it on your own
Doria put two feet in front of you
And you always gotta be strong.
Only the strong survive it
Only the strong survive rock and roll
Only the strong survive it
Only the strong survive rock and roll.
You can't let it get you down
Because you ain't no star
You gotta push and shove and look above
It you're ever gonna get that far.
Only the strong survive it
Only the strong survive rook and roll
Only the strong survive it
Only the strong survive rock and roll.
When you're sittin' on top of the world
Don't let it get you high
Don't let it go to your nose
Or them fancy clothes
It's such a long way down
From the sky.
Only the strong survive it
Only the strong survive rook and roll
Only the strong survive it
Only the strong survive rock and roll...
