You might be right You might be wrong You might just think your life has gone on for too long Your knees get weak And your heart grows cold And youre tired of doing everything youre told And nothing can take away from you What you take and what youve been through Stand up and be strong Stand up and be strong It wont take long You cant go wrong Stand up and be strong You might have to fight You might have to cry You might have to cry You might have to fight Stand up and be strong If you live in the hills You take too many pills If youve lost the thrill Against your own will Stand up and be strong And nothing can take away from you What you take Well you know what youve got to do Stand up and be strong Stand up and be strong It wont take long You cant go wrong Stand up and be strong If you get all depressed When you get undressed If youre lifes a mess Remember youre blessed Stand up and be strong
