Martha Reeves - Number One Lyrics

N-U-M-B-E-R One
N-U-M-B-E-R One

I've found my way working through hurt that made me strong
And I spend each day lifting up hopes by singing my songs
I dreamed of sparkling nights
And ""Martha Reeves"" up in lights
With each step you bet I take it
'Cause my mind was set to make it to

Number one - right here where I belong
In myself I found success
And it brings me happiness
'Cause my life is upward bound
And my stumbling blocks are falling down

Well, it's no use, thinking for you the sun won't shine
Just turn a' loose all that nonsense in your mind
The world is yours to win
Reach right out and watch it spin
Then I promise you won't stop
And when you reach the top, then you're

Number one - right here where you belong
I'm a natural champion and my victories will be won
With my feet on solid ground
My convictions can't be turned around

Number one - right here where I belong
Number one

As I build my self-defence
I'll let nothing shake my confidence

I've had my start, sharing my feelings with this world
Deep in my heart I'm a sentimental girl
I'll fly to far-off places
Find myself in a sea of faces
I've been happy and I've been sad
But I take the good with the bad when you're

Number one - right here where I belong
In my self I found success
And I know that I've been blessed

Number one - right here where I belong
