The Jackson 5

The Jackson 5 (also spelled The Jackson Five, sometimes stylized The Jackson 5ive), later known as The Jacksons, or simply Jacksons, are an American popular music family group from Gary, Indiana. Founding group members Jackie Jackson, Tito Jackson, Jermaine Jackson, Marlon Jackson and Michael Jackson formed the group after performing in an early incarnation called The Jackson Brothers, which originally consisted of a trio of the three older brothers. Active from 1964 to 1990, the Jacksons played from a repertoire of R&B, soul, pop and (in the 1970s) disco. During their six-and-a-half-year Motown tenure, The Jackson 5 was one of the biggest pop-music acts of the 1970s, and the band served as the launching pad for the solo careers of their lead singers Jerm… more »

There's a system we all must follow
If we wanna get ahead
Some men are strong enough to make it
And others are just too afraid

But mama told me a story
And it keeps, keeps me alive
Said, "Some are weak, the weak fall by the wayside
And all the strong the strong survive"
Now you tell me

How strong is the strength of a man
Can he stay on his road and carry his load
Can he carry his load, can he carry his load?
Can he carry his load, can he carry his load?

We have picked the people
And say they're on our side
And after they did everything they want y'all
They start to tell us lie, just lie after lie

But we can't blame our problems
On just that chosen few
'Cause if we wanna solve then
It's up to me and up to you
Now you tell me

How strong is the strength of a man
Can he stay on his road and carry his load?
Can he carry his load, can he carry his load?
(Can he pick it up? Can he pick it up?)
Can he carry his load, can he carry his load?
(Come on tell me? Please, can he pick it up? Yeah)

Is he strong enough because the road is tough
(Uh, tell me)
Strong enough, because the road is tough
(Well, is he strong enough)
Strong enough, because the road is tough
(Is he strong enough?)
Strong enough, because the road is tough

Is he strong enough, because the road is tough
Strong enough, because the road is tough
Strong enough, because the road is tough
(Is he strong enough?)
Strong enough, because the road is tough

Strong enough, because the road is tough
Strong enough, because the road is tough
Strong enough, because the road is tough
Strong enough, because the road is tough

Strong enough, because the road is tough
Strong enough, because the road is tough
Strong enough, because the road is tough
Strong enough, because the road is tough
Strong enough, because the road is tough
