She’s My Number One

                             words & music

                                                                        A.
Geringas/P. Rafelson/D.Ehrlich

 

VERSE ONE

I met her old man

He came to check me out

He had a serious job

And a serious bank account

He said, "What kind of man

Are you?"

How you make a living in this
world?

Most of all

How do ya plan

To care for my little
girl?"

 

PRE CHORUS 2

her father didn't like me cause
I don't own

a single suit or tie

But when we sat down face to
face

Thought I better give it my
best try

 

CHORUS

I said, "I write
songs"

like it wasn't just for fun

He said, "anything I heard
of?

"On the Radio I hit a Home
run...."

 

I said you are not my father

And I am not your son

But I wrote this song for your
daughter

cos she´s my No.1

 

VERSE TWO

NOTE: NOT SURE THE SONG NEEDS TO TALK SO MUCH ABOUT
HIS CAR

I wrote it(this) on a napkin

On the dashboard of my car

It (I) didn't have a radio (back)
then

Half the time it wouldn't even
start

I didn't REALLY have a melody

No, I didn't REALLY have a shot

But I poured (DRANK) myself
into every word

And gave it everything I got

 

PRE-CHORUS #2

?

 

CHORUS

I said, "I write
songs"

like it wasn't just for fun

He said, "anything I heard
of?

You raggedy sun of a gun"

Just then the radio came on

And before my answer had begun

They were playing it loud and
clear

It was my number one

 

BRIDGE

Music is my everything

It's my love and it's my life

But if you daughter let's me
take her hand

It'll be second to my wife

Sir I've learned my lesson

And it's not that music
lessened

But she's your first born girl

Music is my world

But she's
my number one
