Number One Lyrics
I saw my boyfriend hanging with this girl that I hate
He didn't have to tell why last night he was late
I can't believe what you tell me
Your lies have come undone
Now I'm living on the road looking out for number one
I took a ride to the city
Had to get out of this place
I just can't say I'm pretty
When the tears fall down my face
I used to think it was over
But its only just begun
Now I'm living on the road looking out for number one
One day you'll see me but only when your dreaming
One day you'll say I was the one
I used to ride on a Greyhound stashed away on a train
But I take for the subway
That's were the goods are in the rain
I wanna follow the rivers to an island in the sun
Now I'm living on the road looking out for number one
One day you'll see me but only when your dreaming
One day you'll say I was the one
Late at night trying to fight
I just might figure out him
Right now I'm feeling fine
I'm better off without him ya!
One day you'll see me but only when your dreaming
One day you'll say I was the one
I know that on day you'll see me
I'll haunt you when your dreaming
One day you'll say I was the one
I'm number one
He didn't have to tell why last night he was late
I can't believe what you tell me
Your lies have come undone
Now I'm living on the road looking out for number one
Had to get out of this place
I just can't say I'm pretty
When the tears fall down my face
I used to think it was over
But its only just begun
Now I'm living on the road looking out for number one
One day you'll say I was the one
I used to ride on a Greyhound stashed away on a train
But I take for the subway
That's were the goods are in the rain
I wanna follow the rivers to an island in the sun
Now I'm living on the road looking out for number one
One day you'll say I was the one
Late at night trying to fight
I just might figure out him
Right now I'm feeling fine
I'm better off without him ya!
One day you'll see me but only when your dreaming
One day you'll say I was the one
I know that on day you'll see me
I'll haunt you when your dreaming
One day you'll say I was the one
I'm number one

definately about a girl who long to make it big but can't let go of her bf no matter how bad he treats her. great lyrics.
I agree with the post above this song is totally about how she can’t let go of her BF.
This a great song, it would be cool if this song actually became Number One (on some countdown show.)
This song gets me sooooo pumped. I listen to it in the summer no matter how old i get. it j ust brings me up.
Right now I'm feeling fine I'm better off without him!! ...great song!
But I take for the subway That's were the goods are in the rain.
Those lyrics don't make sense. period.
"Bought a ticket for the subway, played guitar in the rain."
