Lyrics Johnny Paycheck – I’m A Survivor
Text:
They say I’m a legend so I try to live up to the name
But I’m just not that good
At dealing with fortune and fame
I’ve made mistakes
But one way or another
I’ve always managed to get over the fall
‘Cause I’m a survivor
I’ve paid my dues
I wrote the book on hard knocks
And paved that road with my boots
I’ve been featured on the six o’clock news
Hey I’m a survivor
Win, draw or lose
Sometimes I wonder how I’ve managed to live through it all
I made an art out of living with my back to the wall
The records will show that I had my share of regrets
But as long as I’m breathing
You ain’t heard the last of old John yet
‘Cause I’m a survivor
I’m just like you
Doing the best with the hand that I drew
Dragging the part I couldn’t refuse
Yes I’m a survivor
Win, draw or lose
Yes I’m a survivor
I’m a survivor
I’m a survivor
Hey I’m a survivor
I’m a survivor
