Number One

Listen, girl, you´re just eighteen
And you don´t know much
So I don´t care at all if you fool around
I´m waiting here sipping on a beer
Biding my time
You don´t know that you are homeward bound

Everything´s just changed a bit,
It looks different now
I´m sitting back listening to my song
No one is to kick me around
So you´d better watch out
I´m sitting back feeling mighty strong

I don´t mind your being so bad , girl
I don´t mind your driving me mad, girl
As long as my record´s number one
I´m beating Elton John

Hard times, they just make me tough,
I´ve come a long way
It bothers me none if I have to wait
But don´t be sure perhaps it´s gonna be
The other way round
It´ll bother me none to tell you it´s too late

I don´t mind your being so bad , girl
I don´t mind your driving me mad, girl
As long as my record´s number one
I´m beating Elton John
