作曲：K Stegall+J Mcbride

They say I'm somebody so I try to live up to the name

But I'm just not that good at dealin'

With fortune and fame

I've made mistakes more than I care to recall

But one way or another I always get over the fall

I'm a survivor I've paid my dues

I wrote the book on hard knocks

And I've bathed in the blues

I've been the feature on the six o'clock news

Well I'm a survivor dancin'the blues

Sometimes I'd wonder how

I've managed to live through it all

Yes I've spent a lifetime of living with

My back to the wall

The records will show that

I've had my share of regrets

But as long as I'm breathing

You ain't heard the last of me yet

I'm a survivor I've paid my dues

Doing my best with the hand that I drew

Just playing the part Lord I couldn't refuse

Yeah I'm a survivor win draw or lose

Yeah I'm a survivor win draw or lose
