The Robert Cray Band - Survivor Lyrics

trouble all around me everywhere
there was a time when i didnt care
life was a party thats all we knew
now i'm so glad to be here today
cause not everybody can stand up and say

that their a survivor, survivor, survivor you got to choose
if you want to be a survivor, survivor, survivor oh yeah you've got to choose

some learn some dont
some live you know that some wont
and time will tell
turn around your life of hell
the good old days for such a waste of time

(solo)

you take alittle school boy and teach him who to hate
then you send him to the desert for the oil knickle weight
try to change a world that you dont understand
now i'm so glad to be here today
cause from now until forever and ever you'll be lucky if you can stand up and say

your a survivor, survivor, survivor you've got to choose if you want to be a survivor you've got to choose
you wanna be a survivor you've got to choose
oh yes so glad to be here today im so glad to be a survivor and turn around your life of hell cant change anything you dont understand woo you oht to be glad
