The Best in the World Songtext
von Charley Pride

(Ben Peters)

I know she′s gonna get me back when I get home again
'Cause she pretends to get upset when I call her little girl
And as we lie there trying to out love each other
Knowing there never could be any other
I realize I′m up against the best in the world.


I always liked competition
But I've never had it so strong
'Cause she likes to play her little games every day
And I′m happy just to play along.

She says honey you know that I love you more
Than you could ever love me
And as I leave for the day I just laugh and say
Little girl when the night comes we′ll see.

'Cause I know she′s gonna get me back when I get home again
'Cause she pretends to get upset when I call her little girl
And as we lie there trying to out love each other
Knowing there never could be any other
I realize I′m up against the best in the world.


Yes, I realize I'm up against the best in the world...
