Joni Mitchell - Number One Lyrics

Got to be a winner, trophy winner (number one)
Get to hold your head up, high up

Got to be a winner, trophy winner (number one)
Get to hold your head up, high up

Number one
Number one
Honey tell me
When you're working, day is done
Were you reaching for the high rung?
Reaching to be number one?

Got to be a winner, trophy winner (number one)
Get to hold your head up, high up

Got to be a winner, trophy winner (number one)
Get to hold your head up, high up

You get a car
You want a boat
You want an eenie-meenie-miney, miney-moe
Oh, there must be more to living
Than a mortgage and a lawn to mow

Got to be a winner, trophy winner (number one)
Get to hold your head up, high up

Sweaty work
And lucky breaks
And blood and tears is all it takes
To be a winner

Got to be a winner, trophy winner (number one)
Get to hold your head up, high up

People cheer
And people gasp
People want your autograph
When you're a winner

Got to be a winner, trophy winner (number one)
Get to hold your head up, high up

Got to be a winner, trophy winner (number one)
Get to hold your head up, high up

Win or lose, win or lose
To the losers go the hearts that lose
To the victor goes the spoilings
Honey, did you win or lose?

Got to be a winner, trophy winner (number one)
Get to hold your head up, high up

Sweaty work
And lucky breaks
And blood and tears is all it takes
To be a winner

Got to be a winner, trophy winner (number one)
Get to hold your head up, high up

People cheer
And people gasp
People want your autograph
When you're a winner

Got to be a winner, trophy winner (number one)
Get to hold your head up, high up

Got to be a winner, trophy winner (number one)
Get to hold your head up, high up

Run, run, run, run
Let's see you run
We'll be betting by the starting gun
Shall we shower you with flowers
Or shall we shun ya
When your race is run?

Got to be a winner, trophy winner (number one)
Get to hold your head up, high up

Will we shower you with flowers
Or will we shun ya
When your race is run?

Got to be a winner, trophy winner (number one)
Get to hold your head up, high up

Will they shower you with flowers
Or will they shun ya
When your race is run?

(Number one) Got to be a winner, trophy winner
Get to hold your head up, high up

(Number one) Got to be a winner, trophy winner
Get to hold your head up, high up

(Number one) Got to be a winner, trophy winner
Get to hold your head up, high up

(Number one) Got to be a winner, trophy winner
Get to hold your head up, high up

(Number one) Got to be a winner, trophy winner
Get to hold your head up, high up

(Number one) Got to be a winner, trophy winner
Get to hold your head up, high up

Number one
